Shayna Texter-Bauman Joins Wrecking Crew
Reigning five-time AFT Manufacturers Champion, Indian Motorcycle Racing has signed Shayna Texter-Bauman to its 2022 AFT SuperTwins factory race team.
With the signing, Indian Motorcycle will welcome the AFT Singles winningest rider as the third member of the Indian Motorcycle Wrecking Crew - joining her husband and two-time AFT SuperTwins Champion Briar Bauman and reigning 2021 AFT SuperTwins Champion Jared Mees.
Piloting the Indian FTR750, Texter-Bauman will pit under the Factory trailer as Dave Zanotti will serve as the crew chief for both riders. Former AFT Champion Jake Johnson will serve as her mechanic.
For 2022, Texter-Bauman looks to become the first female rider to reach an AFT Twins or AFT SuperTwins podium and win an AFT event within the sport’s premier class.
Wrecking Crew rider Jared Mees ended the 2021 season with his seventh career Grand National Championship, while Bauman is a two-time Grand National Champion. Collectively, Mees and Bauman own the last five AFT SuperTwins championships. The Indian Motorcycle Wrecking Crew is excited to welcome back Progressive Motorcycle Insurance as presenting sponsor, as well as support from S&S Cycle, Indian Motorcycle Oil, Mission Foods, J&P Cycles, Parts Unlimited, Drag Specialties, Alpinestars and Bell Helmets.
