According to Harley-Davidson, the 2024 Street Glide and Road Glide models are more powerful, lighter, and more dynamic, and feature all-new visual design elements that combine a cohesive dynamic flow from the front fenders to the saddlebags. Both models feature an evolved fairing profile that appears refreshingly modern yet retains Harley-Davidson design DNA that makes them instantly familiar.

Additional key features include:

  • An updated Milwaukee-Eight\xae 117 V-Twin engine features a new cooling system that further optimizes thermal comfort for the rider and enhanced intake and exhaust flow to boost performance.
  • Selectable Ride Modes \u2013 Road, Sport, Rain, and Custom \u2013 electronically control the performance characteristics of the motorcycle.
  • Infotainment technology is powered by Skyline\u2122 OS and presented on a 12.3-inch TFT color touch screen that\xa0replaces all analog instrumentation and most switches.\xa0A new 200-watt audio amplifier powers a pair of fairing-mounted speakers.
  • Improved aerodynamics enhance rider comfort and reduce subjective helmet buffeting at highway speed by an average of 60 percent. Rear suspension travel is increased to 3-inches.\xa0A redesigned one-piece seat shape and padding materials offer a significant improvement in long-range comfort for most riders.

The CVO Road Glide ST is the quickest, fastest, and most sophisticated performance bagger ever produced by Harley-Davidson, and represents a unique collection of components providing high value to performance-minded riders.
