Harley-Davidson was back at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the first time in more than 100 years. Last Thursday and Friday the Harley-Davidson XCR1200’s had a testing session in advance of their race next weekend. These motorcycles race in a league called the AMA Vance & Hines Harley Davidson’s. The race is just one part of the Red Bull Moto GP at Indianapolis in which several events will be happening at IMS and all over Indy.
I have never even heard of this series and most of you haven’t either. So here’s the basic rundown of the league.
“The AMA Pro Vance & Hines XR1200 Series is a spec-bike race series featuring specially modified Harley-Davidson XR1200 motorcycles. Vance & Hines is the title sponsor and official kit supplier for the class. The special kits consist of a Vance & Hines XR1200 exhaust system, a Fuelpak fuel management system, race bodywork including number plate, single-seat tail section and belly pan, 17- inch front wheel with matching front fender, steering damper, oil cooler relocator and race decal package. The cost for the complete kit, which does not include the price of the motorcycle, is $3,500.00.”
