King of the Baggers: A slice of pure American folklore goes racing
CNN
Take a ramshackle group of racing misfits and some wildly inappropriate machinery, add a couple of finely honed professional athletes and what do you get? The answer is the King of the Baggers.
A Bagger is a slice of pure American folklore; a big, heavy motorcycle designed to lazily gorge on the Big Country's interstates or cruise along its scenic highways. Comfy seats, cossetting fairings, rumbling V-twin engines and, crucially, bags strapped to the sides; if you've ever dreamed of gliding along Route 66, it was likely either in an open topped Mustang or in the saddle of a Bagger.More Related News
