#MotoAmerica #Motorcycle #Motorsport #Racing - Sport
I have watched every race since the beginning of this class, with that said this is one of the best ideas motoamerica has come up with. I’m engulfed in the sport and know the riders and personalities but this is something that should be done more often. Get the fans more familiar with the men and women behind the helmets. This was so cool to watch and would love to hear from them after the race as well in a podium setting like supercross to get inside the mindset of what went on during the race! Great job by all to make this happen. I love this sport!
I think Kyle's comment about getting motorcyclists interested in racing and watching racing who haven't before really hits the nail on the head. He basically described my situation.
Before King of the Baggers, I never actively watched any motorcycle racing despite being a HUGE HUGE HUGE motorcycle fan. I just absolutely LOVE motorcycles from little 50cc mini sport bikes to Harleys and Busas. But I never watched racing. I never watched car racing stuff either unless NASCAR was on in the background at a relative's house.
But now since King of the Baggers, I've been to tracks to watch in person, I got a video of my first ride out to The Ridge on my channel. King of the Baggers really sparked my interest in motorcycle racing. Now I watch MotoGP during the season and watch MotoAm races all the time. And I eagerly await every single King of the Baggers round.
I think the hard part though is you can't really buy or manufacture a rivalry like Indian vs Harley because of the living history of it. That's one of the fun things about KoTB is you see HD vs Indian again like in the old Wrecking Crew days. The rivalry is alive and drives such fun competition. That kind of rivalry just doesnt exist in other brands.
Aprilia and Ducati.
right on !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Moto America for bringing this interview. Quite interesting!!!
My favorite class it reminds me of early super bike years. All the racers are so close and the bikes have never been closer. Having the Australian that is blazing fast out of the box . I can't wait for the races.
It's time to make motorcycle racing history! 🏁
Having ridden alongside baggers during group rides, I would joke about how funny it would be watching them throw sparks on a racetrack. After witnessing the amazing spectacle myself, I can say that these riders are no joke! Fun to watch!💪😎
Heck yeah!!!..KOTB is getting better and better. I'm loving to see how both the riding AND the machines are evolving!..Yall are all awesome!!!..And yes!...GO TRACKHOUSE!...its awesome to see AN AMERICAN GP team again! 🇺🇸
I cannot WAIT for the whole world to get their eyes on the KOTB spectacle and feel the raw excitement they generate. This class harkens back to the days of RAW racing and if you are a racing fan of any sort, THIS is the kind of racing that drew you in to begin with. And GO TRACKHOUSE!! The only crazier exhibition than KOTB on Saturday would be seeing Ross Chastain and Daniel Suarez pilot a GP bike on Sunday. 😂
Go Troy 🏍️💨🍻
First I heard about the new bagger class a couple of years ago I thought it was daft and just a marketing thing doomed to failure.
Shows how little I know :) Astonishing racing, and to be only 15 second slower than the superbike/motogp guys on a 2 minute lap is insane.
Well done MotoAmerica!
Wayne Rainey has been my Hero since the 500 GP days.
He's endured and thrived in his life after such a life changing crash.
And to get Moto America to this point and bring the Bagger class to the world audience is an awesome achievement.
Hayden is like the teacher always stuck in the middle trying to get the Indian and Harley teams to get along 😂
This is the best series in motorcycle racing!
I’m in Mazatlán, Mexico for the eclipse. Tomorrow I fly to the Dominican Republic on a volunteer trip and on the 19th I fly to Atlanta to see these guys race. Guess which one I’m most exited about.
Greg White sounds very professional! Good job kid!
I’m so excited for these guys and the whole class I can’t wait to ride my bagger to Laguna Seca and camp all weekend.I predict the races will become the new motorcycle rallies like Sturgis
Make MotoAmerica great again!
Go Troy!
The secret sauce, in my opinion, to motorcycle racing in this country is Indian versus Harley-Davidson. Americans want to see American brands race. Look at how this is blowing up. Look at how popular American Flat Track got in 2017, 18 and 19 when it looked like the rivalry was going to be a thing in that sport. I know there are those that want to see the sport add other manufacturers, but I hope it stays with American brands only.
Go Harley
Lmao @ frankie
Internationally Moto-Gp still has a stong following, but in the western and emerging markets it is shrinking and foundering. Why? The machines are irrelevant. They don't in any way represent the technology of the future. Moto-Gp, the prototype race series needs to embrace the future and start racing Evs. The technological advancements will be an exciting and relevant story again. Ride Free
good stuff !!!!!!!
Those HD hats are eating ears !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol
