MotoGP: Harley-Davidson’s King of the Baggers Joins Dorna Support Program
Harley-Davidson and Dorna Sports are partnering to elevate motorcycle racing. The American icon aims to expand its motorsport presence, while MotoGP seeks to capitalise on Harley-Davidson's strong U.S. fanbase. Collaboration details are still being finalised.
Dorna Sports, the commercial rights holder for MotoGP, has announced a partnership with Harley-Davidson to integrate the King of the Baggers series into the MotoGP ecosystem. This series, featuring modified touring motorcycles, has grown in popularity in the United States. The collaboration aims to introduce the series to limited MotoGP events, attract new fans, and strengthen MotoGP's presence in the U.S. market.
Harley-Davidson’s Road Glide motorcycles, central to the King of the Baggers series, appeared at the U.S. Grand Prix earlier this year. Their participation demonstrated the potential for more involvement in MotoGP events. This success has led to plans for greater integration of the series into the MotoGP calendar.
