Inaugural H-D Bagger World Cup Champion

HARLEY-DAVIDSON FACTORY RACING

Racing has always been Harley-Davidson’s proving ground. From the cinder tracks of the early 1900s to today’s MotoAmerica® Mission® King of the Baggers™, Mission® RSD Super Hooligan®, and Progressive® American Flat Track™, our motorcycles have carried the fight.


And for 122 years we’ve proven one thing with every lap: Harley-Davidson sets the pace of American racing.


The same drive that pushed our first dirt-trackers onto fairground circuits fuels the baggers and hooligan machines rewriting the rulebook today.


Another season awaits. Engines are tuned. Riders are ready. And fans are hungry. The 2026 season will be another opportunity for us to prove what we all know: Harley-Davidson will dominate whatever track you put us on. We’ll see you trackside.

    SUPER HOOLIGAN

    Last year, James Rispoli shocked the grid and silenced the doubters, earning his first Mission Super Hooligan title on a KWR-prepped Harley-Davidson® Pan America® ST. Now, the #1 plate is his to defend.


    With a new team at his side in Saddlemen Racing and momentum behind him, Rispoli is out to prove the story didn’t end at the top of the podium. That’s where it began.
