Harley-Davidson's 2025 Motorcycle Lineup and Release Timeline

Harley-Davidson announced its 2025 model year lineup in mid-2024, with new bikes rolling into dealerships starting in fall 2024 and continuing through early 2025. The company introduced updates across its core families — Sportster, Street, Touring, and CVO (Custom Vehicle Operations) — along with new engine options and technology features. Most 2025 models are now available at dealers, though specific inventory varies by location and model.

The 2025 lineup marks the second full year of Harley's Revolution Max 975 engine in the Sportster line, and the first year the company offers a new 975cc engine option in select Touring models. Pricing for 2025 models starts around $7,000 for entry-level Street models and reaches $50,000 and above for fully equipped CVO touring bikes, depending on options and dealer location.

Sportster Family Updates for 2025

The 2025 Sportster lineup continues with the Revolution Max 975 engine, a liquid-cooled V-twin that produces 121 horsepower. Harley refined the engine's tuning and added new color schemes across the Sportster S, Sportster 1200, and Sportster 883 models. The Sportster S, the most powerful model in the family, carries a starting price around $10,500 before options and destination charges.

Styling changes include updated seat designs, new wheel finishes, and revised bodywork on select models. The Sportster line also receives improved ergonomics and suspension tuning based on rider feedback from the 2024 model year. Harley offers the Sportster in both standard and custom variants, with the S model positioned as the performance-focused choice.

Street and Cruiser Models in 2025

The Street family — which includes the Street 500, Street 750, and Street Glide — carries forward with minor updates for 2025. These models use air-cooled engines and remain the entry point for new Harley owners, with the Street 500 starting around $7,000. The Street 750 and Street Glide offer more displacement and features at higher price points.

Harley added new color options and graphics to the Street lineup and refined the suspension geometry on the Street 750 for improved handling. The Street Glide, positioned as a cruiser-touring hybrid, includes a larger fuel tank and more wind protection than smaller Street models. All Street models use traditional Harley styling cues while maintaining modern reliability and emissions compliance.

Touring Models and the New 975cc Engine Option

Harley's 2025 Touring family — which includes the Road Glide, Street Glide, Ultra Limited, and CVO models — now offers a new 975cc engine option on select models. This engine sits between the traditional 107cc Milwaukee-Eight and the larger 114cc option, providing a middle ground for riders seeking more power than the base engine without the full displacement of the largest option. The 975cc engine is available on the Road Glide and Street Glide models.

The Touring lineup also receives updated infotainment systems with larger touchscreens on higher-trim models and improved smartphone integration. Harley added new color combinations and refined the suspension tuning across the Touring family. Prices for 2025 Touring models start around $20,000 for the base Street Glide and reach $35,000 or more for fully equipped Ultra Limited models.

CVO Custom Models and Premium Options

Harley's CVO (Custom Vehicle Operations) division released five custom models for 2025: the CVO Street Glide, CVO Road Glide, CVO Ultra Limited, CVO Tri Glide, and CVO Limited. These hand-assembled bikes feature premium paint finishes, upgraded components, and exclusive styling details not available on standard models. CVO models start around $40,000 and can exceed $50,000 with optional packages.

The 2025 CVO lineup includes new color schemes, updated leather seat designs, and premium audio systems on select models. CVO bikes use the same engine options as standard Touring models but receive upgraded suspension, braking systems, and custom wheels. Harley limits CVO production to maintain exclusivity, and dealers typically have waiting lists for popular CVO models.

Technology and Connectivity Features

The 2025 lineup introduces updated Harley-Davidson Connected Services, which allows riders to connect their bikes to a smartphone app for navigation, diagnostics, and trip planning. Select 2025 models include larger touchscreen displays with improved graphics and faster response times compared to 2024 models. The system supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration on compatible models.

Harley also added new safety features to 2025 models, including cornering ABS (anti-lock braking) on select Touring and CVO models. The company refined the electronic throttle control and traction management systems based on real-world rider data. These technology updates are standard on higher-trim models and available as options on base models.

Where to Find 2025 Models and Pricing Information

Some dealers may have 2024 models available at reduced prices as they make room for 2025 inventory.
