three h-d racers together on starting line

Harley‑Davidson 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 bikes 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.

KING OF THE BAGGERS
Harley-Davidson is back to defend the crown. In 2025, Kyle Wyman reclaimed the MotoAmerica® Mission® King of the Baggers title at Circuit of the Americas, closing out a dominant season aboard his factory-prepped Road Glide®. No rider or manufacturer has ever held onto the #1 plate for back-to-back seasons, but in 2026, the Harley-Davidson x Dynojet Factory Race Team is focused on changing that.

Joining the effort is the new Big Diehl x Harley-Davidson Race Team, led by James Rispoli and supported by factory mechanics. With two teams on the grid, Harley-Davidson is all in to take the fight to the front and keep the title where it belongs.

FIM HARLEY-DAVIDSON BAGGER WORLD CUP
Harley-Davidson and MotoGP™ have launched an exciting new championship series, the FIM Harley-Davidson Bagger World Cup, the world’s first global racing series dedicated to high-performance Harley-Davidson bagger motorcycles.

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.

SUPERTWINS
After locking down two manufacturer titles in 2025, Harley-Davidson is back for more in 2026. In the Mission AFT SuperTwins class, Briar Bauman and Brandon Robinson return to defend the crown—this time with rising star Kody Kopp joining the fight. With three Harley-Davidson bikes on the grid and momentum to burn, the mission is simple: hold the line, own the podium, and stay on top.

ADVENTURE TRACKERS
Harley-Davidson is back on the ADV grid with more rounds, more momentum, and a mission to finish what it started. After clinching the manufacturer title in 2025, Jesse Janisch returns on the Pan America® with six rounds ahead and one goal in mind: take the crown. Last season proved he belongs at the front. This year, he’s coming for it all.
