Harley-Davidson’s prefaced their 120th Anniversary festivities with their upcoming Homecoming Festival by giving us some sweet, limited CVO models to stare at. 

Meet the 2023 Harley-Davidson CVO™ Street Glide® and CVO™ Road Glide® – two primed machines featuring the smooth-as-silk Milwaukee-Eight® VVT 121 heart, as well as new aesthetic designs, new floating duties, a brand spanking new infotainment system and two color schemes ready for the ego. 

This year’s models carry a Custom Vehicle Operations™ legacy that has been in operation since CVO’s first machines were released in 1999, so you know Harley’s CEO (and VP) are proud as peaches and ready to see these bikes out in the wild.

“With the introduction of the all-new CVO Street Glide and CVO Road Glide, we’ve completely reimagined two of Harley-Davidson’s most iconic motorcycles and redefined the boundaries of CVO in the process,” explains Jochen Zeitz, Chairman, President and CEO of Harley-Davidson. 

“The new CVO Street Glide and CVO Road Glide break the mold and reset the bar for the pinnacle Harley-Davidson riding experience.”

“These all-new and unquestionably Harley-Davidson designs bring a cohesive and dynamic flow from the front fenders to the saddlebags,” adds Brad Richards, Harley-Davidson Vice President of Design and Creative Director, commenting on the design of the new motorcycles.

“Achieving a greater degree of visual change than any generation prior, the design of these CVO™ Street Glide® and CVO™ Road Glide® models are revolutionary takes on the historical art of evolution. Like all Harley-Davidson® motorcycles, these new models are meant to instill a sense of timeless desire.”

Per Harley’s recent release, the new 2023 Street Glide was given a sleeker look; from the upswept windshield to the integrated turn indicators and “updated surfacing,” the Street Glide is more streamlined than ever, ready for her next owner and raring for the high road.

Naturally, Harley’s 2023 Road Glide wouldn’t be complete without that fun “shark nose” design – an aspect that, once again, has been integrated with the fuel tank, side covers, and saddlebags, drawing all the more attention to that wide, horizontal LED headlight. 

Lovely.
