Harley Brings Road Glide Bagger Racing to COTA in April

Harley-Davidson is bringing big twin road racing back to Texas. The factory just locked in an eight-round, 16-race schedule across seven countries for the 2027 FIM Harley-Davidson Bagger World Cup Tuned by Dynojet, and it all starts stateside in Austin.

The series opens its second season at Circuit of The Americas on April 23–25, sharing the track with MotoGP. The starting grid will feature five teams fielding 11 race-prepared Road Glide motorcycles. Harley also confirmed that these race-spec Road Glides have upgrades currently under development, including increased engine performance and revised aerodynamics.

This applies to Austin, Texas and international tracks, but American fans get the first crack at the action. Early bird three-day fan experience passes are on sale now, running $109 for H.O.G. members and $149 for general spectators. That trackside pass gets you dedicated Harley-Davidson parking, special fan packages, and track parade laps.

Are you heading to Austin to watch race-tuned Road Glides battle alongside MotoGP machines?
