There’s something about the Gulf Coast air that turns a good ride into a great one. And around Homosassa, FL, it’s not uncommon to spot chrome catching the light on U.S. 19 or hear the distant rumble of a Milwaukee-Eight® engine echoing through palm-lined roads. But when that rumble comes from the 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST, you’re hearing something more. It’s refined, aggressive, and clearly built with purpose.
This motorcycle doesn’t follow the usual rules of a long-distance bagger. Instead, it reshapes them into something sharper and more focused. For riders near Homosassa who want a machine that feels thrilling and responsive without losing composure, this bike offers exactly that kind of ride.
The 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST doesn’t hide its heritage. Its performance roots run directly through the King of the Baggers™ race series, and you can feel that inspiration from the moment you swing a leg over. This isn’t a gimmick. The racing influence is reflected in the design, the ergonomics, and the materials that make the bike lighter and quicker to react than most touring machines.
Riders familiar with the backroads north of Homosassa or the wide sweepers heading toward New Port Richey will immediately notice how the carbon-fiber front fender, cast aluminum wheels, and titanium mufflers work together. Each detail reduces unnecessary weight, improving handling and giving this bike a distinct advantage over heavier cruisers.
The seat is low, measuring just 26.7 inches when loaded. It plants you inside the bike instead of on top of it. The solo design adds grip and support, especially when cornering hard or riding aggressively through tight turns.
Underneath it all is a Milwaukee-Eight® 121 High Output engine. It’s among the most powerful factory motors Harley-Davidson® has ever offered, producing 127 horsepower and 145 pound-feet of torque. That level of responsiveness feels more suited to a track than a highway.
But this bike isn’t simply about numbers. The Heavy Breather intake, high-performance camshaft, and extended rev range make it come alive with just a twist of the throttle. Riders around Homosassa’s open stretches will enjoy the instant response when overtaking traffic or leaning into wide corners with confidence.
Paired with SHOWA® inverted front forks and dual rear shocks with remote reservoirs, the suspension absorbs imperfections with ease. It stays stable and composed, even when the roads get rough.
Visually, the 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST speaks with intention. Color options like Mercury Silver, Rally Red, and Hot Lap are bold without being loud. Screamin’ Eagle®-inspired graphics give the bike a clear connection to the race track. The visual flow from fairing to tank feels purposeful and grounded in performance design.
Moto-style handlebars sit on tall risers, giving your upper body a more aggressive position without sacrificing comfort. The Flat-Out engine guard provides practical protection while maintaining a sleek profile that doesn’t interrupt the design. Mini floorboards add just the right amount of foot support while still allowing generous lean angles. Every element of this bike feels intentional and tested.
Glance at the dashboard, and you’ll see something unexpected on a bike with this kind of edge. The 12.3-inch TFT touchscreen powered by the Skyline™ OS acts as your command center. It manages everything from ride modes and navigation to music and safety settings. It’s functional, intuitive, and easy to operate even while riding.
Need to adjust throttle response, traction control, or engine braking? You can do it quickly with eight selectable ride modes, including new Track and Track+ options. These allow you to tap into the bike’s full capabilities when the moment calls for it.
Pair this with the Rockford Fosgate® Stage II audio system, and you’ve got an audio experience that holds up against engine rumble, highway wind, and background noise. The system delivers a clean, punchy sound that makes long rides feel even better.
The 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST doesn’t separate performance from control. Harley-Davidson® brings it all together with a full suite of rider safety enhancements that support your decisions without getting in the way.
Cornering ABS and lean-sensitive traction control adapt in real time to road conditions. Drag-Torque Slip Control provides extra stability during aggressive downshifts or throttle roll-off, especially useful during Florida’s sudden summer storms or sandy corners.
Vehicle Hold Control prevents rollback when stopped on hills or uneven surfaces. It’s one of those features you may not notice until the moment you really need.
The real strength of the 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST lies not just in its specs, but in how it feels on local roads. From the relaxed loops near Homosassa Springs Wildlife Park to the high-speed runs toward Chassahowitzka, this motorcycle adapts to whatever pace you prefer.
It doesn’t matter if you’re chasing sunrise or returning home at sunset. The ride stays stable, smooth, and always connected. This is the kind of machine that makes even quick rides feel like full-blown escapes. It takes ordinary routes and makes them something memorable.
Words can only go so far. If you really want to understand what this bike is capable of, it’s best to feel it from the saddle.
