The 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Street Glide® is engineered with the highest level of factory precision and comes equipped with advanced performance systems, integrated technology, and refined design. It features exclusive detailing only available through the CVO™ lineup, combining the Milwaukee-Eight® VVT 121 engine, fully integrated rider safety enhancements, and innovative infotainment. Each element of this model is purpose-built to create a touring motorcycle that is both powerful and efficient while maintaining the commitment to technical innovation.
Milwaukee-Eight® VVT 121 Engine and Performance Systems
The Milwaukee-Eight® VVT 121 engine is designed to deliver consistent power across a wide operating range. It produces 115 horsepower supported by 139 ft-lb of torque. The integration of variable valve timing allows the engine to automatically adjust timing in response to rpm changes, creating a balance between low-end torque and higher-rpm performance. Advanced liquid-cooled cylinder heads regulate temperature efficiently to preserve consistent output even under demanding conditions. The fuel economy rating of 45 mpg makes the engine not only powerful but also practical for extended touring.
Suspension, Forks, and Ride Stability
The suspension system on the 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Street Glide® includes both front and rear components designed for controlled handling and rider comfort. The front suspension uses 47 mm SHOWA® inverted forks that provide precise steering feedback while absorbing surface irregularities. These forks maintain stability at higher speeds without reducing comfort during long stretches of highway travel.
The rear suspension features asymmetric shocks that allow for quick preload adjustments. This function ensures that performance remains consistent regardless of payload or riding conditions. Riders benefit from the ability to quickly adapt the suspension to match different touring scenarios.
The chassis design also integrates Aero Comfort technology developed through wind tunnel testing. This refinement minimizes helmet buffeting, reducing fatigue during high-speed travel. The combined impact of suspension components, fork design, and aerodynamic testing establishes a balanced ride characterized by confidence and stability.
Precision in Design and Finish
The 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Street Glide® demonstrates a high level of fit and finish exclusive to Harley-Davidson® CVO™ models. Premium paint schemes such as Raven Fade, Poison Berry, and Blue Streak are complemented by scheme-specific chrome and color-matched inserts.
The 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Street Glide® also introduces new lightweight cast aluminum wheels created specifically for itself. These wheels are matched with Brembo® braking components to reinforce both performance and appearance. Integrated LED signature lighting contributes to a streamlined profile by eliminating protruding indicators, improving both visibility and design efficiency.
The ergonomically optimized seat supports long-distance comfort with a height of 26.7 inches when laden. Each design element combines form with function to ensure that visual details are matched by practical benefits.
Advanced Infotainment and Connectivity
The 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Street Glide® features a technology package that prioritizes clarity and ease of use. At its center is the Skyline™ OS infotainment system, which operates through a Wi-Fi-enabled platform with intuitive menu navigation and enhanced on-the-fly map updates.
Information and control are displayed on a 12.3-inch TFT touchscreen. This large display is designed to be bright, clear, and uncluttered, comparable to screens used in luxury vehicles. The system provides seamless control over selectable ride modes, which adjust throttle response, braking support, and traction management to meet different riding conditions.
The audio system is H-D® Audio powered by Rockford Fosgate® Stage II, with speakers integrated into the fairing and saddlebag lids. This arrangement delivers a high-quality surround-sound experience, providing entertainment without compromising rider focus.
Rider Safety Enhancements
The 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Street Glide® incorporates a suite of rider safety enhancements engineered to maintain control in unpredictable conditions. The Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) prevents wheel lock during urgent straight-line braking, while the Cornering Enhanced Anti-lock Brake System (C-ABS) adjusts braking performance according to lean angle.
Electronic Linked Braking (ELB) distributes braking force between both wheels when the rider applies the front brake lever. Cornering Enhanced Electronic Linked Braking (C-ELB) adapts this distribution for braking during lean, supporting more stable cornering maneuvers.
The Traction Control System (TCS) prevents the rear wheel from spinning during acceleration, with Cornering Enhanced Traction Control (C-TCS) extending this function to cornering scenarios. Drag-Torque Slip Control (DSCS) reduces the possibility of rear-wheel slip during abrupt deceleration or downshifting. Cornering Drag-Torque Slip Control (C-DSCS) enhances this function while accounting for lean angle or side-to-side motion on slippery surfaces.
Vehicle Hold Control (VHC) assists during hill starts by keeping the brakes engaged until the rider is ready to move forward, while the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) alerts the rider to changes in tire air pressure.
Touring Capability and Ergonomic Comfort
The 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Street Glide® has been configured for long-distance travel. The Batwing fairing, redesigned for aerodynamic efficiency, reduces rider fatigue by directing airflow around the rider. Saddlebags are seamlessly integrated into the motorcycle’s design to provide practical storage without disrupting overall balance.
The seat is designed to support neutral rider posture during extended touring. Ergonomic adjustments, combined with the suspension system, ensure that comfort and stability remain consistent across long journeys.
