The Harley-Davidson Bagger World Cup is the world’s first global racing series dedicated exclusively to high-performance Harley-Davidson bagger motorcycles. Debuting in 2026, the cup will compete on six MotoGP weekends across North America and Europe. Built on Harley-Davidson’s Grand American Touring platform and developed by Harley-Davidson Factory Racing, the race bikes are purpose-built competition machines producing over 200 horsepower and reaching speeds of up to 300 km/h (186 mph). The result is a visually striking, technically advanced motorcycle that delivers a unique blend of American V-twin character and world-class circuit performance, unlike anything currently on the MotoGP calendar.
