2024 Harley-Davidson Road Glide

The benchmark for long-distance touring bikes.

 

 

DESIGN

 

SHARKNOSE FAIRING

 

 

The sharknose fairing takes on new life with a sculpted silhouette, fully integrated LED lighting, and a new windshield design. Designed using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to improve aerodynamic efficiency, the Road Glide fairing optimizes on-road performance and rider comfort with an aggressive new take on the original frame-mounted fairing.

 

SIGNATURE LED LIGHTING

 

 

Seamlessly integrated, the full LED lighting package improves visibility, integrates turn signals, and accentuates the lines of the sharknose fairing, creating a distinctive look that’s instantly recognizable, day or night.

 

 

CONTRAST CUT WHEELS

 

 

Wrapped in Dunlop tires, the 19-inch front and 18-inch rear cast-aluminum wheels feature a black finish with machine cut highlights that reveal contrasting bright aluminum. 

 

FLOW STATE

 

 

Every surface of the Road Glide has been reimagined and refined, creating a seamless visual flow from the tip of the front fender to the tail of the saddlebags.

 

 

NEW MILWAUKEE-EIGHT 117 V-TWIN ENGINE

 

 

With increased displacement, torque, and horsepower, the 2024 engine features new liquid-cooled cylinder heads that further optimize thermal comfort for the rider, especially in low-speed riding situations and hot weather.

 

 

REDUCED WEIGHT

 

 

The 2024 Road Glide is 16 pounds lighter than the 2023 Road Glide Special, enhancing all aspects of performance, including acceleration and braking.

 

 

AERODYNAMICS

 

 

Developed using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and wind tunnel analysis, the new windshield and fairing help reduce wind buffeting and rider fatigue while adjustable air vanes tune air flow to enhance comfort.

 

 

SKYLINE OS

 

 

The customizable in-dash experience features three unique display options, embedded navigation (available as accessory purchase), and an all-new suite of connected infotainment options powered by Harley-Davidson’s Skyline OS.

 

 

RIDE MODES

 

 

Ride Modes provide more control and confidence during various riding conditions by electronically adjusting performance characteristics and the level of safety technology intervention. Each ride mode (Road, Sport, Rain, Custom) brings to life a unique combination of power delivery, engine braking, Cornering Antilock Braking System (C-ABS), and Cornering Traction Control System (C-TCS) settings.

 

 

12.3-INCH TFT DISPLAY

 

 

The latest innovation in rider connectivity, the crystal-clear, 12.3-inch touch-screen color TFT display puts infotainment and embedded navigation (available as accessory purchase) at your fingertips.
