Where the Best FXR Builds in America Come Together.

There’s something different about an FXR. It isn’t just another motorcycle—it’s a statement. It’s late nights in the garage, busted knuckles, miles on the road, and a passion that can’t be bought.

The Gathering isn’t just another bike show. It’s where builders, riders, and true motorcycle people come together to celebrate the machines that keep this culture alive.

Whether you’ve got a garage-built survivor, a show-stopping custom, or one of the cleanest performance bikes on the road, this is where it belongs.

🏆 Thousands of dollars in manufacturer prizes
🎨 Custom Paint Show presented by Perewitz Custom Paint
🔥 Multiple classes judged by the Dream Rides crew
🤘 Awards on the Main Stage
💨 All happening during SmokeOut Rally ’26

This isn’t about chrome. It isn’t about trophies.

It’s about respect.
It’s about craftsmanship.
It’s about the people who refuse to let the soul of American motorcycles disappear.

Bring your bike.
Bring your friends.
Bring your story.

The internet can tell everyone how good your bike is. The Gathering is where you find out if they’re right.

We’ll see you in front of the judges.
