If you enjoy exploring the scenic roads near Bentonville or planning those longer rides that let you escape the daily grind, the 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST is a motorcycle designed to meet the needs of riders who crave both excitement and comfort. This bike delivers a compelling mix of sport performance and touring ease wrapped in a bold design that captures attention wherever you go. From the moment you see it, you know this is a machine made for riders who want to experience the thrill of the road without sacrificing control or style.
The 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST draws inspiration from the MotoAmerica® King of the Baggers™ race bikes. This means that it carries serious racing heritage, translated into a bike built for the street. The use of lightweight materials, such as the forged carbon fiber front fender replacing traditional steel, helps reduce the bike’s weight and enhances agility. This makes a real difference when navigating the curves and hills surrounding Bentonville, offering a ride that feels lively and responsive rather than sluggish or cumbersome. The cast aluminum wheels further contribute to nimble handling by lowering unsprung weight, which means the bike can absorb bumps and transitions with greater smoothness. Dual floating brake rotors are included to maintain consistent braking performance even when the ride demands intense stopping power. This blend of race-inspired components and everyday practicality makes the 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST stand apart from typical touring motorcycles.
Riders who spend hours in the saddle will appreciate the care Harley-Davidson® put into the seating and ergonomics. The solo seat is both lightweight and aggressive in appearance but delivers comfort with a steep backrest that holds you in place during powerful acceleration and leans, giving excellent support for your lower back. If you are cruising the highways or twisting through winding back roads, the seat helps reduce fatigue, making longer rides more enjoyable. The adjustable handlebars and tall risers give you the freedom to tailor your riding position. You can sit upright and relax or lean forward into a more commanding stance, depending on your preferences and the road ahead. A minimalist but effective Flat-Out bar engine guard protects the bike’s eye-catching paint job from damage caused by low-speed tip-overs without adding unnecessary bulk. This attention to detail means that riders can focus on the ride, confident that their bike is ready to handle both performance demands and the realities of everyday use.
The powertrain at the heart of the 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST is the Milwaukee-Eight® 121 High Output engine, which is the most powerful factory-installed engine Harley-Davidson® has ever equipped in a production model. With 127 horsepower and 145 foot-pounds of torque, the bike delivers smooth, confident acceleration from a standstill and a thrilling surge as you open the throttle. This engine performance, combined with a high-performance camshaft and Heavy Breather intake, keeps the bike responsive without feeling overwhelming. Yet, controlling this power is just as important as having it. That is why the suspension has been designed with fully adjustable components that allow riders to customize the experience to their liking. The front forks offer 4.6 inches of travel and can be fine-tuned for compression, rebound, and preload. Meanwhile, the rear shocks provide 3 inches of travel and use remote reservoirs that separate oil and gas for consistent performance under demanding riding conditions. This setup ensures that no matter if you are rolling over uneven pavement or leaning into tight corners, the bike remains steady and smooth, reducing rider fatigue and increasing confidence.
To complete the performance package, the 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST features lightweight titanium mufflers that improve exhaust flow while giving the bike a deep, muscular rumble. It is a perfect balance; loud enough to announce your presence but refined enough to avoid annoying bystanders. Mini floorboards offer ample foot support while allowing for sufficient lean angle, which helps riders feel secure and in control throughout every twist and turn.
Technology plays a vital role in making this bike accessible and enjoyable for riders who want a modern experience without unnecessary complexity. The 12.3-inch TFT touchscreen display is clear and easy to read even in bright sunlight. It provides all essential information such as speed, navigation with real-time traffic and weather updates, audio controls, and multiple ride modes. There are eight ride modes available, including Track and Track+ modes designed for closed-course use when riders want to push the bike’s limits. These options allow the rider to adjust the bike’s behavior quickly to match the road or personal preference.
Rider safety is enhanced with a suite of smart features that provide peace of mind without getting in the way of the fun. Cornering ABS adjusts braking force according to the lean angle to help maintain stability during braking in turns. Traction Control helps prevent rear-wheel slip during acceleration, which is especially useful on wet or slippery surfaces. Vehicle Hold Control locks the brakes temporarily at stops, making hill starts smooth and preventing unintentional rollbacks. Additionally, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System alerts riders to low or high air pressure, a small detail that can significantly improve safety and tire life over time.
Style is an essential part of the Harley-Davidson® experience, and the 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST delivers in spades. Available in Mercury Silver, Rally Red, and Hot Lap, the bike’s finish is complemented by Screamin' Eagle® graphics that sweep from the fairing to the fuel tank, giving it a dynamic, aggressive look. The design combines sleek lines with lightweight materials to create a silhouette that looks fast even when standing still. The bike’s presence on the road reflects its performance capabilities while making a statement about the rider’s taste and personality.
Combining these features creates a motorcycle that appeals to riders looking for a sport-touring bike capable of handling the variety of roads and conditions around Bentonville and beyond.
