Bobby Fong earned pole position during MotoAmerica Mission King Of The Baggers Qualifying Two Saturday at Brainerd International Raceway, in Brainerd, Minnesota. Riding his Sac Mile/SDI Racing/Roland Sands Design Indian Challenger, Fong lapped the 2.5-mile circuit in 1:36.263 to top the 16-rider field.

Hayden Gillim was the best of the rest with a 1:36.303 on his Vance & Hines/Mission Foods Harley-Davidson Road Glide, and defending Champion Tyler O’Hara claimed the third and final spot on the front row with a 1:36.592 on his Progressive Insurance/Mission Foods Indian Challenger.

Q2 was interrupted by a red flag when Gillim’s teammate James Rispoli’s Harley-Davidson leaked fluid onto the track, causing Kyle Ohnsorg and Patricia Fernandez to crash. Neither rider was injured, but the incident resulted in an extensive clean-up period.
