Harley-Davidson Road Glide Race Bikes
MILWAUKEE, WI – June 7, 2022 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – Harley-Davidson® Screamin’ Eagle® factory rider Travis Wyman led his brother Kyle across the finish line in a 1-2 sweep of the top positions in the MotoAmerica Mission King of the Baggers race on Sunday at Road America in Elkhart Lake, WI. It was the first win in the King of the Baggers series for Travis Wyman, who started the rain-delayed race from the front row aboard a race-prepared Harley-Davidson® Road Glide® motorcycle.
