Harley-Davidson King of The Baggers Documentary Released
Harley-Davidson has the first episode of its documentary that focuses on its exploits in the King of The Baggers racing series
Since its creation a few years ago, the King of The Baggers (KOTB) race series has captivated crowds and wowed viewers, quickly becoming one of the most unlikely motorsport classes on the planet.
The sight and sound of watching huge near-two-litre, cruisers duelling on track, at incredible speeds, has captured the imagination of fans in the US and abroad. The actual specs of the bikes are unknown, but those close to the series claim of peak power over 200bhp in a machine that weighs nearly 300kg. Despite the weight, the development is such that they can lap certain tracks at speeds approaching that of traditional rece-prepped sports bikes.
It’s a story that you’ll be able to relive away from the race weekend now, as Harley-Davidson has produced a documentary centred around its factory-backed team headed by its riders Kyle Wyman and James Rispoli.
