X Games Harley-Davidson Flat-Track

The 2015 event had a very rough track due to torrential rains, but was still very well received by the public and press

Competition Rules

The 2015 event utilized AMA Pro Flat Track GNC1 equipment rules as they apply to twin-cylinder motorcycles. Differing from standard AMA rules were the use of a motocross-style starting gate and the size of the track was considerably smaller than is usually used for the twin-cylinder motorcycles (normally reserved for use on half-mile and mile tracks).
