Harley Brings Road Glide World Cup to Austin in 2027
Share
Harley-Davidson is taking its bagger racing international once again, and the tour starts on American soil. The 2027 FIM Harley-Davidson Bagger World Cup Tuned by Dynojet will feature eight rounds and 16 races across seven countries.
The action begins at Circuit of The Americas in Austin, Texas, from April 23 to 25, 2027, running alongside MotoGP. Teams get their first laps during a preseason test at COTA on April 17 and 18. Five teams will field 11 Road Glide race motorcycles on the grid. Confirmed American squads include Saddlemen Race Development, Kyle Wyman Racing, and Mad Monkey/Tobacco Road Harley-Davidson. Dynojet serves as the presenting sponsor, while Dunlop returns as the official tire supplier.
This news applies to U.S. and international fans, but American riders have plenty of reason to pay attention. Harley has shifted its factory racing focus away from domestic series to put its weight behind this world stage. That gives bagger fans in the States a shot at early access to tickets and track packages in Austin before the series heads overseas.
Are you planning to hit COTA to watch 11 Road Glides tear up the track alongside MotoGP?
