2015 Harley-Davidson Road Glide unveiled
With the launch of the 2015 Road Glide, a familiar name is returning to Harley-Davidson’s range.
The most obvious new feature is a redesigned frame-mounted fairing. It might not be especially elegant, but Harley-Davidson is saying that the aerodynamics have been carefully honed and automatic vents will equalise air pressure either side of the windscreen. As a result, head-buffeting and rider fatigue are claimed to be much reduced.

Standard equipment includes a 4.3” colour infotainment screen that sits above the instruments, dual LED headlights and a reprofiled handlebar that’s less of a stretch to reach. Furthermore, the Road Glide Special gets an upgraded 6.5” screen, satellite navigation, ‘Reflex’ anti-lock linked brakes and hand-applied pinstripes.
Power for both models is provided by a fuel-injected, air-cooled, 1,690 cc High Output Twin Cam 103 V-twin engine. Its output is delivered to a chain drive system via a six-speed transmission.
