2026 Harley-Davidson® Road Glide®

Nowhere Never Looked So Good

With a liquid-cooled Milwaukee-Eight® 117 motor, selectable ride modes, ride-tuned suspension and the Skyline™ OS 12.3” (312 mm) display guiding the way, the 2026 Road Glide turns every nowhere into exactly where you want to be. Because freedom isn’t where you’re going, it’s how you move.

Features may include:

Every Angle Aimed At What’s Ahead

Subhead: From its iconic Sharknose fairing to contrast-cut wheels and full LED signature lighting, the 2026 Road Glide is built to turn heads while taking you further.

Redesigned Sharknose Fairing

The iconic Sharknose fairing on the 2026 Road Glide is better than ever, designed with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to increase aerodynamic efficiency and reduce helmet buffeting. And it looks cool as hell.

LED Signature Lighting

LED lighting front and back fits the lines of the bike without adding clutter or distraction

Contrast-Cut Wheels

With an 18" rear (457 mm) and 19" front (483 mm), these lightweight cast-aluminum wheels come in a distinctive gloss black finish with machined highlights and are purpose-built to make the 2026 Road Glide more maneuverable than ever

Presence That Pulls Harder And Goes Further

Featuring H-D's Milwaukee-Eight 117 motor, a ride-tuned suspension for longer days, and a premium 200-watt sound system, the 2026 Road Glide delivers presence as much as it does power.

Selectable Ride Modes Ready for Any Road

Three pre-programmed ride modes adjust throttle mapping, Traction Control, ABS, and more to change the feel of the bike instantly. You can also create a custom mode to match your riding style and help you squeeze every ounce out of every ride.
