Harley-Davidson Factory Racing Gears Up for King Of The Baggers Title Defense

Harley-Davidson x Dynojet Factory Racing is revving up for the 2026 Mission King Of The Baggers Championship, aiming to retain their hard-won title. Defending champion Kyle Wyman will proudly carry the #1 plate, piloting a new race-prepared Harley-Davidson Road Glide alongside teammate Bradley Smith.

Motorcycle enthusiasts, especially those who appreciate the power and performance of American V-twins, will be keen to follow this high-stakes series. The team has been rigorously testing and developing their Road Glide racing machines during the off-season, indicating a strong commitment to staying ahead of the competition. As Jason Kehl, Harley-Davidson Director of Racing, noted, defending a championship is often more challenging than winning the first one, as every competitor will be gunning for the top spot.

Adding another layer to the competition, James Rispoli will also contend for the championship with the new Big Diehl x Harley-Davidson Factory Racing satellite team. This team will receive full technical support and race-prepared Road Glide motorcycles built to the same specifications as the factory bikes, ensuring a strong Harley-Davidson presence across the grid. The 14-race series kicks off March 5-7 at Daytona International Speedway, promising thrilling action for riders and fans alike.
