The 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST sets a new standard in the realm of high-performance touring motorcycles. This model is designed for serious riders who demand precision, power, and advanced technology. From its high-output engine to its upgraded suspension and braking systems, the 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST delivers both superior handling and reliability.
High-Output Engine: Power for Every Ride
The 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST is powered by the Milwaukee-Eight® 121 High Output V-twin engine. The engine is rated at 127 horsepower and delivers 145 ft-lb of torque.
The engine features a Heavy Breather Intake system, which optimizes air intake to enhance engine performance. Additionally, the high-performance camshaft and rev limit of 5,900 rpm help to extract maximum efficiency from the engine during all riding conditions.
Transmission and Suspension: Optimized for Handling and Comfort
The 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST is equipped with a 6-speed Cruise Drive® transmission. The 6-speed transmission enables the rider to cruise comfortably at highway speeds while maintaining a high level of performance in various conditions.
For suspension, the 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST features advanced SHOWA® 47mm inverted front forks with 4.6 inches of travel. These forks are designed to provide optimal front-end stability and precise handling. The rear suspension is supported by SHOWA® Remote Reservoir shocks, which offer 3 inches of travel. This suspension setup ensures that the rider experiences reduced impact from road irregularities.
Braking System: Precision and Safety
The braking system on the 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST is engineered to provide excellent stopping power. It is equipped with Brembo® dual floating brake rotors, which deliver superior braking performance by maintaining consistent contact with the pads and reducing brake fade. These rotors work in conjunction with an anti-lock braking system (ABS) that prevents the wheels from locking up under heavy braking.
Additionally, the bike comes with cornering ABS (C-ABS), which is especially valuable for riders who need to brake while leaning into a corner. The bike is also equipped with Harley-Davidson®’s Drag-Torque Slip Control System (DSCS), which helps to regulate engine braking and maintain stability during deceleration. For added security, the Vehicle Hold Control (VHC) system prevents the bike from rolling back on inclined surfaces.
The 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST also features Electronic Linked Braking (ELB), a system that automatically adjusts brake pressure between the front and rear brakes based on the bike's speed and the rider’s input. This system helps to maintain a balanced braking performance across all conditions, contributing to overall safety.
Advanced Ride Modes and Customization
One of the standout features of the 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST is its customizable ride modes, which offer riders eight distinct settings. These modes, including Track and Track+ modes, allow the rider to fine-tune the bike’s throttle response, suspension firmness, and other parameters to match riding conditions or personal preferences. The Track and Track+ modes are especially designed to optimize the bike for high-performance riding, providing enhanced throttle sensitivity and suspension adjustments for maximum responsiveness.
The ride modes can be easily accessed via the bike's integrated system, allowing riders to quickly switch between settings depending on their needs.
High-Tech Display and Connectivity
The 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST features a 12.3-inch TFT display that integrates seamlessly with the motorcycle's onboard systems. This display is equipped with the Skyline™ OS interface, which provides intuitive controls for navigation, music, and system settings. The display offers detailed traffic and weather overlays. The 12.3-inch screen is large enough to provide clear visibility without overwhelming the rider with information.
The bike’s infotainment system is also integrated with a Rockford Fosgate® Stage II audio system, providing clear, high-quality sound for riders who wish to enjoy music while on the road.
Tires and Wheels: Durability and Grip
The 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST is equipped with Michelin® Scorcher® 31 tires, which are specifically designed for high-performance motorcycles.
The bike’s cast aluminum wheels are designed to be lightweight and durable. These wheels contribute to the bike's overall performance by reducing weight without compromising strength.
Design: Aggressive Yet Functional
In terms of design, the 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST features a forged carbon fiber front fender, which not only enhances the bike’s aggressive aesthetic but also reduces overall weight. Additionally, the Screamin’ Eagle® graphics add to the bike’s bold, high-performance look.
The lightweight, aggressive solo seat provides additional comfort during long-distance rides. The seat is designed to offer adequate lower-back support while also providing better grip for the rider during high-speed cornering.
