Harley-Davidson’s 2026 motorcycle lineup is started revealing from the November3, 2025 which revealed refreshed Cruiser and Grand American Touring bikes with setup of Milwaukee-Eight 117 engine.
Cruiser Family (Harley Davidson 2026 lineup)
Harley has a deep history of iconic cruiser designs and they have six models in pipeline for 2026 year.
- 2026 Harley-Davidson Low Rider S,
- 2026 Harley-Davidson Low Rider ST,
- 2026 Harley-Davidson Heritage Classic,
- 2026 Harley-Davidson Breakout,
- 2026 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy,
- 2026 Harley-Davidson Street Bob.
All of these models will be running on the Milwaukee-Eight 117’s 117 cubic inches setups reminding us of the 1957 introduction of the XL Sportster with its 883 cubic inch Ironhead engine.
Over the years, all of these have evolved a lott, for example Fat Boy was first introduced in 1990 with a 1340 of cubic inch engine along with safety additions like including cornering ABS and traction control. Iconic Breakout and Fat Boy are still known for its low profile with updated suspension. I am very excited for the launch of Harley Davidson’s 2026 lineup lets see what new upgrades these motorcycles will bring.
Touring Models
Street Glide and Road Glide anchor the 2026 Grand American Touring options, designed for epic road trips with fairings that cut wind resistance, evolving from the 1980 FLT Tour Glide’s rubber-mounted frame that first isolated vibrations from the 1340 cubic inch Shovelhead engine.
These bikes pack the 117 cubic inch powerplant for superior highway torque, a leap from the 96 cubic inch Twin Cam introduced in 2007, which helped touring models achieve better fuel efficiency and speeds up to 110 mph loaded. The Ride Command infotainment system now features a vibrant TFT display for seamless navigation and Bluetooth, expanding on the 2008 cruise control and 6-gallon tank additions that extended range to over 200 miles per fill-up.
Adjustable air suspension and ergonomic tweaks prioritize all-day comfort, reflecting lessons from the 1994 Road King’s debut, which sold steadily by offering detachable bags for versatile cruiser-to-tourer shifts.
Solo Trim
Harley-Davidson rolls out a Solo Trim Package for 2026 on the Heritage Classic, Street Bob, and Street Glide, stripping things down to a solo seat, Dark Billiard Gray finish, and cast wheels starting at $19,999, $14,999, and $24,999 respectively. this is reminding us of the minimalist appeal of early 1950s models like the K Series 750 cubic inch bikes.
This setup retains the full Milwaukee-Eight 117 punch and safety suite, making high-end riding more approachable, similar to how the 1986 Evolution engine revival boosted entry-level sales by 30 percent in the late 1980s.
Riders can add on accessories like performance exhausts later, drawing from Harley’s customization tradition that turned the 2006 Street Glide into a bestseller with over 10,000 units moved annually in its early years
