The 2025 Harley-Davidson® Street Glide® Ultra is designed for touring enthusiasts who require advanced performance, comfort, and practicality. This model incorporates engineering innovations, rider-focused features, and modern technology for long-distance journeys. The following sections detail the different aspects of this touring motorcycle.
Engine and Powertrain
The Milwaukee-Eight® 117 V-Twin engine powers the 2025 Harley-Davidson® Street Glide® Ultra. This high-performance engine delivers increased torque and horsepower compared to earlier models in the lineup. Liquid-cooled cylinder heads ensure optimal heat dissipation, even during prolonged operation. A centrally mounted radiator improves engine cooling by directing airflow into the intake system. This powertrain is engineered to balance performance with fuel efficiency, making it suitable for long-distance touring.
Suspension System
SHOWA® dual outboard emulsion shocks are standard on the 2025 Harley-Davidson® Street Glide® Ultra. These shocks offer three inches of travel, providing improved handling and comfort. Riders can adjust the hydraulic preload manually, enabling customization based on the load and road surface.
Aerodynamics and Wind Control
The batwing fairing on the 2025 Harley-Davidson® Street Glide® Ultra is a key feature in reducing helmet buffeting and improving aerodynamic efficiency. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and wind-tunnel testing optimize the fairing’s design, resulting in reduced rider fatigue. A clear windshield that is four inches taller than standard models provides additional protection against wind.
Adjustable air vents integrated into the fairing lowers give riders control over airflow. Fork-mounted air deflectors are larger than those on previous models, allowing for better wind redirection and torso ventilation. The fairing skirt is engineered to work in conjunction with these components, improving airflow management while maintaining the motorcycle's structural integrity.
Seating and Ergonomics
The two-up seat on the 2025 Harley-Davidson® Street Glide® Ultra is designed to enhance comfort during long-distance travel. The seat ergonomically rotates the rider’s hips forward, reducing spinal pressure and improving overall posture. The passenger seat includes a robust back pad and integrated armrests, ensuring a comfortable ride for two-up touring.
Storage and Luggage Capacity
The King Tour-Pak® luggage carrier is a standard feature on the 2025 Harley-Davidson® Street Glide® Ultra. This component provides 4.9 cubic feet of storage capacity, accommodating travel essentials and gear. Saddlebags and fairing storage compartments further enhance carrying options.
Technology Integration
The 12.3-inch touchscreen color TFT display is a central feature of the 2025 Harley-Davidson® Street Glide® Ultra. This display operates on the Skyline™ OS, providing a responsive and intuitive interface. Riders can access navigation, media, and ride mode settings through the display. The system supports four distinct ride modes, allowing riders to adjust the motorcycle's performance to suit specific conditions. Voice recognition technology enables hands-free operation of navigation and media.
Safety and Control Features
Vehicle Hold Control is included in the 2025 Harley-Davidson® Street Glide® Ultra. This feature ensures the motorcycle remains stationary on inclines or declines by activating the brake system. Riders can engage the feature by squeezing and releasing the front brake lever, preventing rollback and ensuring secure stops. The braking system incorporates advanced ABS technology and electronically linked brakes.
