Key Features of the 2025 Harley-Davidson® Street Glide®

Milwaukee-Eight® 117 V-Twin Engine

Big V-Twin performance is at the core of the Street Glide®, and the Milwaukee-Eight® 117 brings strong, tractable torque across the rev range. The liquid-cooled cylinder heads and discrete center-mounted radiator help regulate temperatures on warm days and in urban traffic. That means more consistent power delivery and rider comfort when conditions get demanding. The engine’s refined internal balance preserves the character riders expect while reducing fatigue over distance. Matched with a high-performance touring intake that increases internal volume and flow, the powertrain breathes easily, responds quickly, and pulls with authority for interstate merges, uphill climbs, and two-up touring.

Batwing fairing

The iconic Batwing fairing has been reshaped using computational fluid dynamics to reduce buffeting and improve rider comfort. Its airflow management helps stabilize the front end at speed while channeling clean air around the rider. Subtle profile changes also enhance the visual flow of the motorcycle, integrating with the tank, side panels, and bags for a cohesive silhouette. Together with a one-piece seat, the fairing’s aerodynamics create a calm pocket that lets you stay alert and relaxed over long days, from crosswinds to turbulent highway sections. The result is a fairing that looks classic at a glance yet feels distinctly modern on the road.

LED Signature Lighting

LED signature lighting is integrated directly into the bodywork, producing a sleek, seamless look while boosting on-road visibility. The lighting pattern is designed to illuminate the road with a crisp, even beam to help clarify lines, signage, and roadside hazards at dawn, dusk, or during night rides. The integrated approach also helps reduce external protrusions, aiding aerodynamics and maintaining the Street Glide®’s clean lines. It is lighting that does more than look sharp—it contributes to practical touring confidence in varied weather and changing light conditions.

12.3-Inch TFT Display

The 12.3-Inch TFT Display centers the cockpit with an intuitive, high-resolution interface. Glove-friendly controls make it simple to view navigation, manage media, and adjust motorcycle settings with minimal distraction. The display’s brightness and contrast are engineered for clarity in bright sun and low light alike. Paired with fairing-mounted speakers and a 200-watt, four-channel amplifier rated at 50 watts per channel, the audio delivers deep lows, clean mids, and crisp highs. For riders who like to fine-tune their cockpit, the display menus and audio equalization offer sensible customization that keeps you in command of your ride data and your soundtrack.

Ride Modes

Ride Modes change the Street Glide® personality with a button press. Road is a balanced all-around setting ideal for most conditions, Sport tightens response for a livelier feel, and Rain moderates inputs for added composure on wet or low-traction surfaces. A customizable mode lets you tailor parameters to personal preference. This adjustability matters when you are transitioning from surface streets to highways, climbing into hilly terrain, or riding two-up. It helps the 2025 Harley-Davidson® Street Glide® feel appropriately calm, eager, or surefooted based on the moment, elevating confidence without complicating the ride.
