Bio
In the realm of sports, particularly racing, compelling stories drive the excitement. Cody Gilmore embodies such a tale—rising from battling cancer to reclaim his position as a mainstay in the 450SX Class. Yet, today’s focus is on Gilmore’s latest venture: competing in the Bagger Racing League [BRL], maneuvering hefty V-Twins on pavement. Moto enthusiasts revel in seeing MX/SX stars excel in diverse racing arenas, and Gilmore has swiftly proven his prowess in the BRL despite limited bike time. We caught up with Gilmore to delve into his transition from dirt and knobbies to the world of big, powerful Harleys and triple-digit speeds.

His journey from the high-flying world of Supercross to dominating the road racing circuit marks a remarkable new chapter in his racing career, with his sights firmly set on continued success in 2025.

Race Bike
2021 Harley-Davidson FXLRS

First Bike
Jake started riding at 20 years old when he paid way too much for a 2004 XL883C. McGuire didn’t keep that bike very long but “I was hooked and it completely changed my life.”

Bikes in Your Garage
Other than the race bike I’ve currently got a 2022 FXLRST that is my daily driver, a 1989 FXR, a 2002 Sportster, and a 2020 Honda Grom. Looking to add a race bagger for next season as well.

What is Your Regular Job?
I’ve worked on and off at a Harley-Davidson dealership since 2018. In that time I’ve held multiple positions in the service department ranging from porter to service manager. I’m fortunate enough now to stay at home with my daughter full time and just work on bikes part time.
