AFT-spec XG750Rs available through dealers bolstered by $250,000 in contingency support
Photo Credit: Scott Hunter, American Flat Track
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (November 22, 2019) –Harley-Davidson announced today a major increase in their support of American Flat Track’s
AFT Production Twins class. For the first time ever, authorized
Harley-Davidson dealerships will now have the race-proven XG750R
available for purchase, ensuring that more competitors will field these
race-winning machines during the 2020 American Flat Track season. To
support the racing efforts of Harley-Davidson-mounted riders in the
class, the Milwaukee-based marque has also posted a $250,000 contingency
package.
“As
we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Harley-Davidson XR750 next
season, this expanded pledge of support shows our lasting commitment to
the sport of flat track,” said Jon Bekefy, GM of Brand Marketing for
Harley-Davidson. “Harley-Davidson dealerships fielding the XG750R will
provide an opportunity for our community to rally behind this great
American sport.”
Harley-Davidson
has been synonymous with flat track racing since the inception of the
sport. Throughout the golden era of pro flat track, powerhouse
Harley-Davidson dealerships from around the country scored hundreds of
wins aboard the legendary XR750. Moments of brilliance during the 2019
AFT Production Twins season hearkened back to that golden era, as Dalton Gauthier and James Rispoli made consistent podium appearances and scored two wins aboard a privateer XG750R backed by Black Hills Harley-Davidson.
With
$7,500 awarded to XG750R riders for each AFT Production Twins race win
plus a $25,000 championship bonus on the line, the contingency package
offered by Harley-Davidson is sure to heat up the on-track action next
season. A total of $15,000 will be up for grabs to XG750R riders at each
AFT Production Twins round in 2020, broken down as follows:
$7,500
$3,000
$1,000
$800
$700
$600
$500
$400
$300
$200
The
XG750R is available for purchase for $35,999 and deliveries will begin
immediately. Supply is limited and priority will be given to
dealerships. For details and ordering information, please contact Vance
& Hines at xg750r@vanceandhines.com.
As
America’s Original Extreme Sport continues its meteoric rise, the
availability of the XG750R and Harley-Davidson’s banner contingency
offering will set the stage for a renaissance movement of dealer-backed
privateers contesting for AFT championships in 2020.
“We
are delighted with this latest initiative from Harley-Davidson,” said
Michael Lock, CEO of American Flat Track. “This represents the latest in
a long line of Harley-Davidson’s investment in our sport and it opens
up a great opportunity for dealer teams and aspiring riders to challenge
in our rapidly growing sport.”
American Flat Track will kick off its highly-anticipated 2020 season with the first-ever Saturday of Speed featuring the DAYTONA 200 and DAYTONA TT Doubleheader at Daytona International Speedway.
