The 2026 Street Glide Limited is a completely reworked luxury touring motorcycle designed for long-distance riding with a passenger. It is powered by the new Milwaukee-Eight VVT 117 engine, which produces 106hp, 177.6Nm and offers improved fuel efficiency. Harley-Davidson has reduced weight significantly compared to the older Ultra Limited, making the bike easier to handle at low speeds. The iconic batwing fairing has been redesigned for better aerodynamics and is paired with a taller touring windshield for improved wind protection. Comfort has been enhanced with new heated seats for both rider and passenger, heated handgrips and improved Showa suspension. The motorcycle also features a new 12.3-inch touchscreen powered by Skyline OS, integrated navigation, and a Rockford Fosgate audio system. A redesigned Grand Tour-Pak improves passenger comfort and overall luggage usability.

Road Glide Limited

The 2026 Road Glide Limited brings similar upgrades to riders who prefer the Road Glide’s frame-mounted sharknose fairing. It shares the same Milwaukee-Eight VVT 117 engine and improved suspension setup as the Street Glide Limited. Weight has been reduced compared to the previous Road Glide Limited, improving balance and manoeuvrability. The frame-mounted fairing reduces steering effort at low speeds and improves stability on the highway. A taller touring windshield, adjustable airflow elements and improved heat management enhance rider comfort. Technology and convenience features include the same 12.3-inch Skyline OS touchscreen, integrated navigation, premium Rockford Fosgate audio, heated seats and heated handgrips, along with the redesigned Grand Tour-Pak and expanded storage options.

CVO Street Glide Limited

The new CVO Street Glide Limited is the most luxurious two-wheel touring motorcycle in Harley-Davidson’s 2026 line-up. It is powered by the Milwaukee-Eight VVT 121 engine, delivering stronger performance than the standard Limited models. The motorcycle features exclusive CVO paint schemes with intricate hand-applied detailing and premium finishes. Suspension and braking are upgraded with high-end Showa components and Brembo brakes. Comfort is taken further with heated seats finished in Alcantara, a heated passenger backrest and a removable rider backrest. Technology highlights include the Skyline OS infotainment system displayed on a 12.3-inch touchscreen and a powerful Rockford Fosgate Stage II audio system.

CVO Street Glide ST 

The CVO Street Glide ST is designed for riders who want maximum performance in a factory-built bagger. It is powered by the Milwaukee-Eight 121 HO engine, producing 127hp and 196.5Nm, making it one of the most powerful touring motorcycles Harley-Davidson has ever built. The bike features fully adjustable Showa suspension, Brembo performance brakes and significant weight reduction through the use of carbon fibre and titanium components. Track-focused ride modes and aggressive CVO ST paint and graphics underline its racing inspiration, while it also has a more commanding riding position that suits spirited riding.

The updated CVO Road Glide ST is the fastest motorcycle Harley-Davidson will offer in 2026. It shares the Milwaukee-Eight 121 HO engine with the Street Glide ST and combines it with the aerodynamic advantages of the frame-mounted, shark-nose fairing. The motorcycle features fully adjustable Showa suspension, Brembo brakes and lightweight carbon fibre components to improve handling and acceleration. Harley says that the track-oriented electronics, multiple ride modes and race-inspired CVO paint schemes reinforce its performance-focused character.
