Built around Harley-Davidson's touring motorcycle platform, the 2024 Harley-Davidson CVO Road Glide ST features a 1983 cc (121 cu in) oil & air-cooled v2, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 127 HP (92.7 kW) at 4,900 rpm while maximum torque reaches 196.6 Nm (145 lb-ft) at 4,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 64 HP per liter and a 900 rpm working window between peak torque (4,000 rpm) and peak power (4,900 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the CVO Road Glide ST measures 380.1 kg (838 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.33 HP/kg (2.99 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 678 mm (26.7 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,625 mm (64 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 22.71-liter (6 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 5.23 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 434 km (270 miles) between fill-ups.
