Redesigned Softail Frame

Harley-Davidson’s beloved Softail family and signature frame gets an upgrade with the Sport Glide. If you’re not part of the Softail family yet, you should know the best part about the Softail frame is its unique hidden monoshock rear suspension. This gives riders cleaner lines and superior handling. But the Sport Glide takes it to the next level. The frame is 34% stiffer and incredibly lighter so you’ll get a more responsive ride that takes harder lines with more severe angles, all while keeping you in control of your ride. And even though it’s a sleeker, lighter frame, the Sport Glide includes high performance suspension to make your ride smoother, especially when you need to pile on the luggage for touring days. It’s the next big deal in the Softail line.

Milwaukee-Eight Engine

The all-new Sport Glide features one of Harley-Davidson’s all-new engineering developments, the Milwaukee-Eight 107 engine. This is the engine packed with plenty of power, heart, and over a century of riding experience. Just a few moments on the bike and you’ll feel for yourself the crazy amount of torque this engine packs in. Try out the bike a little longer, and you’ll be excited to learn the 0-60 mph response and the 60-80 mph response are insanely quick. The Milwaukee-Eight 107 also features a sleeker profile to fit perfectly in the sleeker frame of the Sport Glide. And before you groan at the thought of the whiplash you’ll get from the jerky vibrations an engine like this would give off, the Milwaukee-Eight 107 is fully counterbalanced to save you from chattering your teeth a little too hard. Not to mention, this engine is slimmed down to fit in your sleek new ride.

Touring Ready

While you may look at the Sport Glide and think, “cruiser,” this bike is fully equipped to handle long days on the road. The lighter weight makes for a more agile ride and easier maneuvering when you pull into your destination. The low-vibration Milwaukee-Eight 107 engine makes for a smooth ride and the removable mini-fairing takes the stress of high winds off your body, keeping you more alert when you’re out traveling. And since you’ll probably be packing a little bit of extra baggage, the Sport Glide features hard-side locked saddlebags to keep your cargo stored and safe. If you need to slim down, along with the mini-fairings, you can remove the saddlebags for easier cruising. No matter what you need to accomplish for the day, the Sport Glide will help you get there.

Technology with Style

To top it all off, the Sport Glide includes some of the latest in motorcycle technology. This includes the LED forward-lighting system and keyless ignition. And to add a little flair, just for the fun of it, the Sport Glide is equipped with blacked out Milwaukee-Eight 107 engine, Mantis cast aluminum wheels, and strong lined exhaust pipes. So you’ll get the perfect versatility bike with all the style and class of the modern rider.
