Lawless Harley-Davidson® - What to Know About the 2025 Harley-Davidson® Street Glide®

The 2025 Harley-Davidson® Street Glide® brings the soul of American touring into sharp focus, blending time-honored style with modern engineering. Its iconic Batwing fairing, refined ergonomics, and confidence-inspiring chassis make it a compelling choice for riders who want long-haul comfort without sacrificing everyday rideability. From its Milwaukee-Eight® 117 powertrain to a class-leading infotainment suite, this bagger is built to turn miles into memories.

Look closer and you will find the details that matter on every ride. Aerodynamics shaped by computational fluid dynamics give the fairing a cleaner airflow pattern, helping reduce buffeting while preserving that unmistakable silhouette. Integrated LED lighting enhances visibility and presence, while a one-piece seat, carefully shaped for support, keeps you comfortable from dawn departure to dusk arrival.

  • Engine and cooling: Milwaukee-Eight® 117 V-Twin with liquid-cooled heads for consistent performance in stop-and-go or high-heat conditions.
  • Infotainment: 12.3-inch color TFT touchscreen puts navigation, media, and bike data front and center.
  • Ride modes: Select Road, Sport, Rain, or customize settings to match conditions and preference.
  • Suspension: Quickly adjustable rear preload helps dial in comfort and control for riders, passengers, and luggage.
  • Wheels and stance: 19-inch front and 18-inch rear contrast-cut wheels deliver modern style and surefooted handling.
  • Lighting: Seamlessly integrated LED signature lighting for enhanced visibility and a clean, cohesive look.

On the road, the Street Glide® feels composed and ready. The Milwaukee-Eight® 117 delivers smooth, authoritative torque, making quick work of highway merges and two-lane passes. Steering is neutral and predictable, and the upgraded fairing design helps the bike track steadily across changing wind conditions. Heat management from the liquid-cooled heads contributes to comfort in urban traffic and warm climates, so you can stay focused on the ride ahead.

Technology elevates the touring experience without overwhelming it. The 12.3-inch TFT display is crisp and responsive, placing essential controls within easy reach. Pre-programmed ride modes change the bike’s character with a tap, while a high-quality audio system rounds out the cockpit with clear sound. Add available rider safety enhancements to increase confidence in variable conditions, and you have a platform that adapts as quickly as the road changes.

  1. Choose your route: Plan a loop that includes city streets, highway stretches, and a few sweepers to sample handling and wind protection.
  2. Bring your gear: Wear your usual helmet, gloves, and jacket to judge airflow, vision, and control feel in real conditions.
  3. Explore the display: Try key functions on the 12.3-inch TFT, including navigation views and audio settings, before rolling out.
  4. Adjust preload: If you will ride two-up or carry luggage, have the rear suspension set for your expected load.
  5. Check fitment: Sit, stand, and stretch on the bike to confirm reach to bars, controls, and floorboards over time.

Customization is part of the Street Glide® story. From windshields and seats to foot controls and storage solutions, it is easy to tailor ergonomics and function. Many riders also upgrade lighting or audio to match their touring goals. Start with the essentials you will use every ride, then add finishing touches that reflect your style.
