The 2016 Road Glide Special leans heavily into 1970s custom chopper culture with the stunning, factory custom Hard Candy Gold Flake paint scheme. This eye-catching finish features multi-sized metallic flakes clear-coated to a mirror-like shine, paired with bold, dark flame graphics. The radiant paint covers the iconic frame-mounted Sharknose fairing, 6-gallon fuel tank, fenders, and One-Touch hard saddlebags, contrasting perfectly against the bike’s chrome mechanical components and black contrast-cut Enforcer wheels.
Beneath the radical custom paint is a high-performing highway cruiser powered by the high-output Twin Cam 103™ engine, which puts out 104.7 ft-lbs of immediate low-end torque through a 6-speed Cruise Drive transmission. As a premium Special model, it comes standard with hand-adjustable low-profile rear suspension, a high-gloss black inner fairing, and premium Reflex™ Linked Brakes with ABS. The dashboard is anchored by the high-end Boom!™ Box 6.5GT infotainment system, giving the rider a 6.5-inch color touchscreen display with integrated GPS navigation, Bluetooth, and a powerful multi-speaker audio system.
