Harley-Davidson and MotoGP plan to collaborate on future projects to showcase their products to each other’s audiences, and staged a demonstration at Circuit de Barcelona – Catalunya after the last MotoGP race of 2024 to kick off the project.

Beyond the official announcements, the real stars of the show were the Grand Prix racers who took to the track on MotoAmerica King of The Baggers-spec Harley-Davidson Road Glide racebikes.

The motorcycles couldn’t have been more different than their professional racing machines – Marco Melandri grinned when it was suggested that the 250cc Aprilia GP bike he took to the World Championship would have fit in the saddlebags of the machine he was about to mount.

But they were all grinning after ripping (and sliding and wheelieing) around the circuit on the big, torquey machines.

Harley-Davidson put together a video of the event. See it below.
