S&S Indian is appealing the MotoAmerica decision to disqualify defending Mission King of The Baggers Champion Troy Herfoss from Race Two at Mid-Ohio, which Herfoss won, a MotoAmerica spokesman said.

MotoAmerica issued a Notification of Sanction on Aug. 17, saying that Herfoss was disqualified for a violation of the class ballast rules. The notification says that the “aft-most section of machine main frame is filled with approximately 3.4 pounds of epoxy … the use of epoxy does not comply with section 2.3.10,” which states that ballast used to bring a machine up to minimum weight must be made of solid metal.”

Herfoss crossed the line in Race Two ahead of Harley Davidson x Dynojet Factory rider Kyle Wyman and S&S Indian’s Tyler O’Hara.
