Harley-Davidson CVO Street Glide when it comes to luxury touring motorcycles, few names command as much respect and admiration as Harley-Davidson. In 2025, the American legend has taken things a notch higher with the launch of the Harley-Davidson CVO Street Glide — a bike that perfectly blends power, style, technology, and comfort. Tailored for riders who demand the very best, the CVO Street Glide is redefining what it means to hit the open road.
A Bold New Design That Turns Heads
The 2025 Harley-Davidson CVO Street Glide boasts a completely redesigned aesthetic while staying true to its heritage. Its sharp, aerodynamic lines flow seamlessly across the bodywork, complemented by a menacing new fairing design that optimizes wind deflection. Premium paint finishes, exclusive CVO badging, and top-tier chrome detailing give it an undeniable road presence.
Every inch of the bike screams craftsmanship — from the precision stitching on the seat to the intricate custom wheels. Harley-Davidson’s attention to detail ensures that the CVO Street Glide stands out in any crowd.
Powertrain: The Mighty Milwaukee-Eight VVT 121
At the heart of the 2025Harley-Davidson CVO Street Glide lies the all-new Milwaukee-Eight VVT 121 engine — the most powerful V-twin ever factory-installed by Harley-Davidson.
Engine Type: 1,977cc Milwaukee-Eight VVT 121
Maximum Torque: 183 Nm @ 3,500 RPM
Transmission: 6-speed Cruise Drive
This engine delivers breathtaking acceleration and effortless cruising power, all while maintaining smoothness and refinement that touring enthusiasts crave. Thanks to variable valve timing (VVT), the CVO Street Glide offers better efficiency, enhanced performance across the rev range, and improved fuel economy compared to previous models.
Top Speed, Mileage, and Ride Quality
The 2025 CVO Street Glide can hit a top speed of around 190 km/h, making highway overtakes and long-distance rides thrilling and stress-free.
Despite its large engine, Harley-Davidson has tuned the bike for respectable fuel efficiency. The expected mileage is around 15–18 km/l, depending on riding conditions and habits — quite reasonable for a heavy luxury touring motorcycle.
The suspension setup features Showa Dual Bending Valve forks at the front and premium shocks at the rear, providing a plush ride without sacrificing sporty handling. Combined with Harley’s Cornering Rider Safety Enhancements, the CVO Street Glide offers top-tier stability and rider confidence, even during aggressive cornering.
