Harley-Davidson Street Glide FLHX 2024

The new Harley-Davidson Street Glide is damn close to the CVO models, which, as we all know, always mark the highest evolutionary stage of what is currently possible. The powerful 117cc engine actually comes from last year's CVOs and is very controllable despite its enormous torque. When it comes to driver assistance systems and electronic features, the Americans even play a pioneering role with the huge touch display. The Street Glide could only have been given a little more fine-tuning when it comes to the chassis, but the handling is basically fine despite the high weight. And comfort, which is far more important on a Grand American Tourer, is definitely not neglected.
