  • Just days after winning the MotoAmerica King of the Baggers race at Laguna Seca, I had the chance to ride my street legal Road Glide Special 131 on the track. How fast can I go on the street bike compared to the race bike?

    This was great. The bagger races are so much fun to watch, just cause they're bikes that have no business on a track. And yet, its just wildly entertaining to watch a 600+ lb bike getting backed into corners. Great stuff!

      @dormantmenace Před rokem +10

      King of the baggers are basically moto gp bikes with ptoduction frames the amount of money and r&d in them. Nothing like a production bike. Only 2 to 3 seconds off super sport class and that much faster than the hooligan class. The lesser classes are more realistic of what sone coin and track time could net you.

      What’s even scarier is cruiser tires are starting to outperform the cruisers they are being put on. My tires on my cruiser look and feel like sport bike tires. I would know cause I had a sport bike before.

    That was great fun to watch. I met you at the H.D. event in Wilcox AZ. The best part of that event was being coached by you at the track segment. It should have been the entire day though. I hope to see you at the Champ school in Homestead Fl. in November. I highly recommend the on line ChampU video to all my students. Keep these video's coming! How bout a showroom stock H.D. vs Showroom stock Indian bagger on the track?

    I don’t have a crate motor on my new road glide and there’s no track nearby. But I do know that it is fantastic with just the stage 2 and for a non professional racer it will very easily go way faster than I would be safe doing without a track available. What a fun video, and I am a big fan Kyle. Keep ripping man, and keep on winning!

    @DCdrumrdad1 Před rokem +2

    Pretty sick, Kyle. A little faster than I thought it would be. A lot of riders who’ve never ridden an H-D Touring model have no clue how much fun these things are if you dial ‘em up a little. The King of the Baggers series has seriously changed some attitudes. Lots of positive comments at a few of the “multi brand” Bike Nights” I’ve attended recently. Keep it up, Dude… and GO GET THAT CHAMPIONSHIP!

  • @guyconnell2250
    @guyconnell2250 Před rokem +7

    I was kind of amazed how stable it seemed even at max lean. And yeah, the scraping of hard parts really is the limiting factor when aggressive cornering on one of these HD baggers. There is a fine line between just scraping floorboards, kick stand, maybe muffler tip and bottoming out on the mufflers or bags and levering the rear off and low siding. Great video. Thanks.

    • @TrevorDennis100
      @TrevorDennis100 Před rokem

      Yes. I was expecting to see the bike wallow and lurch on the fast bends, but it was surprisingly smooth. I'm guessing the after market shocks make a lot of difference.

    I really enjoyed your series with KWR Ducati in the MotoAmerica races. Through those videos, I learned of KOTB. These races are so entertaining, after all, racing is racing. The speeds are relative. I'm blown away by the performance the manufacturers have rung out of these bikes and the lap times and great racing the riders have provided with their incredible skills. Motorcycle racing has always eclipsed auto racing for me, and KOTB is just a whole different level of crazy! BTW, H-D couldn't ask for better representatives than you and Travis. Best of luck.
