Overview

Introducing the 2023 Harley-Davidson Road Glide ST, a motorcycle that brilliantly merges the classic touring spirit with modern performance and technology. Positioned within the premium touring category, this model is designed for riders who crave adventure without sacrificing comfort or style. At a competitive MSRP of $29,999, the Road Glide ST embodies the essence of the Harley-Davidson brand, offering a powerful ride that’s equally suited for long-distance journeys and spirited weekend excursions. At the heart of the Road Glide ST is the formidable Milwaukee-Eight™ 117 engine, boasting a displacement of 1917.4 cc (117 cubic inches). This powerhouse delivers an impressive torque of 172.2 Nm (127 ft-lbs) at a mere 3750 RPM, ensuring that you have the muscle needed to tackle any terrain with confidence. The 6-speed transmission and belt final drive provide a smooth and responsive riding experience, while the electronic sequential port fuel injection system enhances fuel efficiency, achieving 5.74 liters per 100 km (40.98 mpg). With a compression ratio of 10.2:1 and a bore and stroke of 103.5 x 114.3 mm, this engine not only performs exceptionally well but also offers a thrilling auditory experience as you twist the throttle. Beyond its powerful engine, the 2023 Road Glide ST is equipped with a suite of advanced features and technologies that elevate the touring experience. The 6.5-inch color TFT display is thoughtfully designed to provide essential information at a glance, including the odometer, trip settings, and gear indicator, all while complementing the bike’s sleek styling. Riders will appreciate the added comfort of cruise control and the convenience of infotainment options, including USB and Bluetooth connectivity. The bike's robust chassis features premium suspension components, with a 49mm telescopic front fork and hand-adjustable twin shocks at the rear, providing a stable and comfortable ride, whether you’re cruising on the highway or navigating through city streets. **

Pros

  • Powerful Performance: The Milwaukee-Eight™ 117 engine provides exhilarating torque and smooth acceleration, ideal for both long-distance touring and spirited rides.
  • Advanced Technology: The comprehensive TFT display and infotainment system enhance the riding experience with easy access to navigation and music.
  • Comfortable Ride: With adjustable suspension and a low seat height, the Road Glide ST offers an accommodating ride for a variety of riders.

Cons
