What was this game called?

Hi Folks,

My memory is failing me. I played this game about 20 years ago, circa
1986-88, in several arcades in the UK (mainly on the south coast -
Hastings, Brighton etc.). It was by Williams, but it wasn't a normal
upright cabinet. It was a sci-fi racing type game, where you sat
astride a bike-type chassis and leaned left and right to turn - the
were handlebars with throttle and brake. The track on the screen in
front of you was sort of suspended in space - it went over lava or
rocks or cityscapes or whatever, depending on the level you reached.
There were other riders - I don't think you could shoot them, but you
could bump them into the big coloured rocks on the track.

Does this ring any bells with anyone?

Thanks in advance,

CC

Williams Star Rider.

I know of 3 people in the UK who have one being from the UK myself.
