GETTING RACY AT STURGIS®

1 June 2017 par imrgadmin Leave a Comment

Nothing says “hooligan” like staging a hooligan motorcycle race at a site that’s not really a race track!

Fueled by its shared passion for performance and racing, the Indian Motorcycle® team created a race track in front of the Buffalo Chip main stage so it could host hooligan racing on the Wednesday of Sturgis® Motorcycle Rally week.

THE RESULT?
A tremendous success as the racers and fans shared an after-noon of fun, competition, and camaraderie unique to those who love motorcycles and motorcycle racing. Four classes of compe-tition ran on the unique track that had to be adapted to the avai-lable space. That meant the racing “oval” included a right-hand turn, a rarity that added to the experience and uniqueness of the day. Racer turnout was strong, fueled in part by the opportunity to race on the one-of-a-kind track at the legendary venue. Race fans surrounded the track and cheered from skyboxes as once again, Indian Motorcycle® added a new and unique chapter to the history of motorcycle racing.

Throughout the rally, riders took thousands of Indian Motorcycle® demo rides on the 2017 models, giving them the opportunity to experience the new Ride Command™ system.
There was also a well-attended Indian Mo-torcycle Riders Group® (IMRG) ride and lunch during the rally. Along with IMRG members, other special guests at the event were the riders completing the Veterans Charity Ride to Sturgis.® Plus, the all-new Indian® Scout® FTR750 flat track race bike was unveiled at Sturgis® confirming that In-dian Motorcycle® would add new, winning chapters to the history of motorcycle racing.
