“I can’t wait to go watch the Baggers come down the Corkscrew for the first time,” said MotoAmerica President Wayne Rainey. “That will be a sight that I think our fans will love. "
I can't disagree with that

Having pro racers would keep the racing tighter and much more competitive. But I would rather see a non professional racers (minimal race training). Having a field of riders willing to risk their $$$$$ baggers for 15 minutes of fame would be much more entertaining.

Fine with me if they have a pro circuit and an amateur circuit

I wanna see some Bagger carnage , debri all over the race track but a true race , not just a demolition derby. Maybe a seperate class that pulls a trailer too.

It would be fun to race my S-40 against that bunch ! I've run-up behind a few of them on the Sky-way that were hard to keep-up with once they desided not to be passed .
.
...............
Would my guzzi be called a bagger ?

MM:
Your bike is a "standard" with bags....it is not a bagger. It likely is too light, too nimble and won't drag the frame or footpegs at shallow lean angles.
If you wanted to race a Guzzi - it would have to be this one.
