Harley-Davidson Files Trademarks for RMCR and RMXR, Inching Toward Production

Harley-Davidson filed US trademark applications for 'RMCR' and 'RMXR' on July 29. The RMCR is the cafe racer concept already shown at Mama Tried, Daytona Bike Week, and the MotoGP Americas round, and the filing signals it's moving toward production. RMXR appears flat-track inspired. If both proceed, expect 2027 or 2028 model years, the brand's first factory cafe racer since the 1970s.

No surprise everyone who saw it in person at Mama Tried was talking. Filing an actual trademark instead of leaving it as a concept means they're serious about building it. I'm curious about the flat-track angle on the RMXR too. If Harley hands builders a factory bike worth wrenching on, I'm already excited to see what it looks like five years from now.
