Tyler O’Hara topped MotoAmerica Mission King Of The Baggers Qualifying One (Q1) Friday afternoon at Brainerd International Raceway, in Brainerd, Minnesota.
Riding his Progressive Insurance/Mission Foods Indian Challenger in wet-but-drying conditions, O’Hara managed to record a 1:53.543 on his ninth and final lap of the session to top the field of 16 riders, although not all of them went out in the mixed conditions.
Also earning spots on the provisional front row were Vance & Hines/Mission Foods Harley-Davidson’s James Rispoli (1:54.164) and O’Hara’s teammate Jeremy McWilliams (1:54.189).
The King Of The Baggers field will have their final qualifying session at 11:35 a.m. local time on Saturday.
