Key Features of the 2026 Harley-Davidson® Street Glide®

Milwaukee-Eight® 117

With 117 cubic inches of displacement, the liquid-cooled Milwaukee-Eight® 117 is tuned for real-world touring. It generates 130 ft-lbs of torque at 3,250 rpm and 105 horsepower at 4,600 rpm, translating to effortless passes and relaxed cruising in top gear. The engine’s smooth fueling comes via Electronic Sequential Port Fuel Injection (ESPFI), and the 2-1-2 dual exhaust with tapered mufflers balances performance tone with long-haul civility. Gear ratios are dialed for usable thrust across the rev range, and the powertrain’s refinement shows up in reduced vibration, consistent heat management, and predictable throttle response that’s as welcome in traffic as it is on open county roads.

The Next Generation of Batwing Fairing

This evolved Batwing fairing is all about cutting cleaner air while preserving the iconic silhouette. Its shape helps reduce helmet buffeting and creates a calmer pocket behind the bars, which lowers fatigue across long stretches. The design integrates All-LED Signature Lighting for a brighter, crisper view of the road, and it pairs with contrast-cut wheels to accentuate the Street Glide’s stance. The result is a front end that feels planted, looks unmistakably Harley-Davidson®, and supports all-day comfort whether you’re cruising at highway pace or threading through town.

Skyline™ OS 12.3 in. TFT Display

Skyline™ OS anchors the cockpit with a 12.3 in. full-color TFT screen that consolidates navigation, media, bike data, and connectivity. Apple CarPlay works wired or wirelessly, and Bluetooth supports phone, media player, and headset links. The interface is responsive with glove-friendly controls, and voice recognition is available for select languages. Two 5.25 in. fairing speakers, powered at 50 watts per channel, deliver clear audio at speed, while AM/FM and USB-C keep inputs flexible. Beyond entertainment, Skyline™ OS displays vital information like air temperature and oil pressure and supports text-to-speech, all designed to minimize distraction and keep essential info one glance away.

Rider Safety Enhancements

Harley-Davidson’s Rider Safety Enhancements are designed to support traction and stability in changing conditions. Core components include Anti-lock Brake System (ABS), Electronic Linked Braking (ELB), Traction Control System (TCS), Drag-Torque Slip Control System (DSCS), Vehicle Hold Control (VHC), and the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). Models equipped with Cornering Rider Safety Enhancements add cornering-aware systems such as C-ABS, C-ELB, C-TCS, and C-DSCS. Together, these technologies work in the background to help the motorcycle follow your intended path under braking, acceleration, and downshifts, especially on imperfect surfaces or during surprise maneuvers.

Ride-Tuned Suspension and Chassis

Touring confidence starts with the Street Glide’s tuned chassis. Up front, a 49 mm dual bending valve fork delivers compliant damping over rough pavement, while the dual outboard emulsion rear shocks with 3 in. of travel and preload adjustability let you fine-tune for cargo or a passenger. The cast aluminum wheels and 4-piston fixed calipers paired with dual floating rotors in the front increase braking stability. With a wheelbase of 64 in., 26 degrees of rake, and 6.7 in. of trail, the bike feels surefooted at speed, yet turns in predictably at low speeds. Lean angles of 32 degrees left and right add confidence for sweeping backroads, and the 6-gallon tank and 2.42 cu ft luggage capacity make longer trips practical without constant stops.
