The 2017 Harley-Davidson Road Glide Ultra represents the ultimate expression of long-distance interstate luxury, striking a commanding presence in its premium two-tone Mysterious Red Sunglo and Velocity Red Sunglo factory candy finish. This deep, multi-layered red color scheme glows under direct sunlight, flowing beautifully across the massive, frame-mounted Sharknose fairing, 6-gallon fuel tank, stretched hard saddlebags, and spacious King Tour-Pak™ trunk. Engineered to confidently swallow endless highway miles, this full-dress tourer features a tall touring windscreen, dual-zone heated seats with a plush wraparound passenger backrest, a premium chrome engine package, and distinct contrast-chrome Impeller cast aluminum wheels.
A monumental milestone for the 2017 model year lives directly under the tank with the introduction of the advanced Twin-Cooled™ Milwaukee-Eight® 107 engine. Combining precision liquid-cooling strategies around the exhaust valves with traditional air cooling, this 1746cc counter-balanced V-Twin delivers an incredibly smooth ride while unleashing a massive 111 ft-lbs of immediate low-end torque. This massive muscle is funneled through a 6-speed Cruise Drive transmission, dropping highway RPMs to reduce rider fatigue. The state-of-the-art cockpit centers around the Boom!™ Box 6.5 GT infotainment system featuring a high-resolution color touchscreen with voice-activated GPS navigation, working alongside standard cruise control, Reflex™ linked Brembo® brakes with ABS, and high-performance Showa® dual bending valve front suspension for an unflappable touring experience.
