Harley Ups the Ante For King of the Baggers Competition
By Brett Foote

The unlikely smash hit bagger racing series is expanding for 2021.

 

Even though on race day, the field was light, it was a great race to watch.

 

Unfortunately, it seems that the bagger racing thing has already split into two different groups. King of the Baggers and BRL (Bagger Racing League). Any thoughts on which camp is going to be dominant?

 

I was there for the race Sunday. Pretty cool. Only maybe 8 bike in the whole race. Only 4 that were competitive.

 

The HOG chapter at my dealer is going to Caffeine & Octane Sunday morning and then to Road Atlanta for the KOTB race. I might have to go.

Next trend in baggers will go from the stupid big front wheels to "bagger racing" bikes.

 

Love the races and bikes. .Cant wait to see the KOTB race here in Cali.

 

Yep, I've really enjoyed watching this. I've always preferred Production racing or Superstock / Supersport as it's now called over here, where the competing bikes performance is fairly evenly matched with only limited modifications allowed and it's all down to the skill of the rider. Not that BSB, WSB etc. isn't down to rider skill, but you know what I mean.

 

5 on the starting line when the started . Only two bikes really in the race. It was great . But if the want to sell this they need more than two bike fighting for the lead. i watched it recorded it. First race of any kind I watched in a long time.

 

Seems that a few teams are going with this one.
Not much info yet...here's a link to cycle world talking about it.
