We upgraded the 2026 Road Glide to help you turn every ride to nowhere into an epic ride to everywhere. This bike was made to roam.
With a liquid-cooled Milwaukee-Eight™ 117 motor, selectable ride modes, ride-tuned suspension and the Skyline™ OS 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.

“There’s a difference between going for a ride and going somewhere you’ve never been. The Road Glide does both.”
From iconic looks to long-haul function, the 2026 Road Glide blends commanding design with a ride-tuned suspension, a Milwaukee-Eight 117 motor, and a 312 mm Skyline OS display that brings tech, safety, and control to your fingertips. It's ready.

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 lighting front and back fits the lines of the bike without adding clutter or distraction.
With an 457 mm rear and 483 mm front, 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.
The one-piece seat design on the 2026 Road Glide creates a visual flow through the line of the bike while maintaining the highest standard for long-haul touring comfort.
With 27 degrees of adjustability, you can roll the bars forward or back to lock in your ideal riding position. Fine‑tune your fit for all‑day comfort.
Now available in Blood Orange, Purple Abyss, Aurora Blue Denim, Olive Steel/Vivid Black, and Teal Thunder/Vivid Black, along with standard Vivid Black and Dark Billiard Gray. Fresh paint and graphics give the 2026 Road Glide a sharper, more modern edge from every angle.
Street Glide and Road Glide return for 2026 lighter and with a modern take on the iconic Batwing and Sharknose fairings, Milwaukee-Eight 117 motors, and the new 12.3-inch Skyline OS with ride modes, Apple CarPlay, and turn-by-turn navigation. Those aren’t the only things we have up our sleeves.
Harley-Davidson’s Rider Safety Enhancements is all about giving you that extra peace of mind when things get a little unpredictable. It’s a set of smart tech that steps in during tricky situations, helping the bike handle traction while you’re accelerating, braking, or slowing down. With the Cornering Rider Safety Enhancements, the bike even adjusts for cornering, keeping things smooth and steady without you having to think twice.
ABS is designed to prevent the wheels from locking under braking and helps the rider maintain control when braking in a straight-line, urgent situation.
This feature electronically applies braking effort to both wheels when the rider applies the front brake lever and, on some models when the rider applies the rear brake pedal. ELB can help many riders achieve better braking performance. It boosts braking power when needed while minimizing or stopping the linking for lighter braking or at lower speeds.
The TCS is designed to keep the rear wheel from “spinning out” when the motorcycle is accelerating in a straight line and enhances rider confidence.
DSCS is designed to reduce excessive rear-wheel slip and help prevent rear-wheel lock under powertrain-induced deceleration, which typically occurs when the rider makes an abrupt downshift gear change or quickly reduces the throttle while on wet or slippery road surfaces.
With Vehicle Hold Control (VHC), your bike’s not rolling anywhere until you’re ready to go. Perfect for hill starts or ramps, VHC keeps the brakes locked after you let go, giving you a smooth, confident launch. Just give the brake lever or pedal a quick squeeze at a stop, and VHC has you covered until you’re ready to roll. Heads up: this isn’t a parking brake replacement, but it sure makes those uphill take-offs a breeze.
TPMS alerts the rider through the information display to low or high tire air pressure. Maintaining proper tire air pressure is important both for vehicle performance and tire life.
C-ABS is a variant of ABS that takes into consideration the lean angle of a two-wheel motorcycle, or the lateral acceleration of a Trike model. The brake pressure required to limit wheel slip when cornering is typically or lower than the pressure required under straight line operation.
C-ELB takes into account the motorcycle lean angle or Trike lateral acceleration. C-ELB will alter the proportioning of brake pressure between the front and rear brakes when braking while cornering in an attempt to improve the ability of the bike to maintain the rider's intended path.
C-TCS is designed to prevent the rear wheel from excessive spinning under acceleration when going straight or cornering.
On bikes equipped with C-DSCS, the system helps keep the rear wheel from slipping or locking up when you quickly downshift or let off the throttle, especially on wet or slippery roads. When turning, it can adjust based on how much a two-wheel bike is leaning or the side-to-side motion on a Trike.
