Road Glide Special

In Brief

With its all-out aggressive style, the Road Glide® Special motorcycle ups the “bad” factor and brings a helluva lot of attitude to the long haul. The bike takes the touring must-haves and wraps them in a no-apologies style making it the motorcycle of choice for the high-mileage road warrior.

NEW IN 2017

  • Milwaukee-Eight™ 107 engine, the most powerful, coolest-running motor we’ve ever built
  • Rear exhaust pipe and catalytic converters repositioned away from the passenger for less heat and a more comfortable ride
  • Precision oil-cooling for cooler running and consistent performance
  • Improved fuel economy to give you more out of every tank of gas
