    Sissy! Tell him to pound sand! Yell that you're gonna fight this all the way to the Galactic Supreme Court! Dig your heels in, call him a banana eating, tricycle riding, sideshow monkey and fart the theme to Smokey and the bandit!

    Gawd damn BBS is getting all cashmere buttwipe soft as you all get older. :D

    La-dee-dah, let's all hold hands and skip through a field of suflowers. Blah!

    F1 used to change motors damn near every practice. Didn't seem to bother them. :D

    I’m just lulling him into a false sense of security while I file for the trademark in the background. Coming soon to a social media ad near you, MotoMurica gear! All shirts will be sleeveless, but only after tearing the arms off haphazardly.

    I think this also helps Harley with selling customer bikes to teams who decide to participate. Based on this May-12th article, the calendar, teams, and sponsorship still aren't final. Not sure if that's because this is a half-baked idea or if the announcement was early?

    It does beg the question of what is MA's purpose / benefit in this? It benefits Harley (global audience, international calendar, prestige, etc.), but how does MA benefit? Teams and sponsors will want the global exposure so why stay in MA? If the premier showcase for baggers is opening for (or closing?) the GP weekend then does the hooligan category become the marque event for MA and is MA's role then to create a feeder into the global bagger series to highlight US talent on the global stage? That seems like a stretch. All in all it is both an interesting move and a strange one and I don't think Harley is making this move in tandem with MA; it feels like a breakaway from MA.

    Your question presumes that MA is supportive of this new series. Maybe I missed it, but I don't recall reading that MA is involved in this in any way.

    You're right. I too didn't know / see / read anything about MA's involvement so was curious if anyone else knew more. With what's been published it does seems like a breakaway move by Harley. Which I get, but also think is not awesome.

    Surely Fox Sports or someone will carry the bagger class. If they don’t, it will be a big miss.
