2024 Harley-Davidson Street Glide and Road Glide

The bikes come with four selectable riding modes – road, sport, rain, and custom, allowing riders to customise different parameters according to their preferences and riding conditions.

Both models also showcase a striking new design with striking visual elements flowing from front fenders to saddlebags. The revamped fairing and updated aerodynamics significantly reduce helmet buffeting at highway speeds, with an average reduction of 60%.
