There is virtually no difference in the skill level between moto gp and superbike. In moto gp the bikes are purpose built for racing and are not available to the public ,while superbike bikes are production models that have been modified for racing.
Rossi's current team mate Nicky Hayden raced and won the championship in superbike and then switched to moto gp and bested Rossi to win the championship in 2006.

#10 - I wouldn't say that, the gp bikes are harder to ride, all superbike riders will say so. You have to be more fit to handle the higher forces generated by the gp technology. And absolutely, RIP Marco, Motogp lost a little of it's colour and excitement on Sunday. So sad.

#11 You have it exactly backwards. World superbike requires more muscle to handle the bike since they do not use traction control and anti-wheelie control. This difference makes WSB much more entertaining for the fans and more fun for the riders. Rossi has loudly complained about all the electronic controls on moto gp bikes and would like the rules changed to give the riders more control of the bike.He is looking at eventually going to WSB.
Moto gp and WSB engines develop about the same horsepower (220 hp) but the superbikes are a bit heavier. On some tracks a superbike will turn times within two seconds of a moto gp bike,so they are very close.
Here is a good read on the comparison.

Even if here were no video I'd be happy only with the commentators
