You can view these new Grand American Touring bikes up close this weekend
First introduced in January 2022, the all-new Harley-Davidson Street Glide ST and Road Glide ST touring motorcycles have now been launched in Malaysia by the brand’s local guardian, Didi Resources Sdn Bhd. The bikes, whose prices start from RM182,900, will be available for viewing at Harley-Davidson‘s open houses this weekend (9 and 10 April).
Powering both Glide ST models is Harley-Davidson’s new Milwaukee-Eight 117 V-Twin engine with 117 cubic inches (1,923 cc) of displacement. Featuring a high-performance camshaft, a high-flow intake, and high-performance exhaust, the engine churns out 106 hp at 4,750 rpm and 172 Nm of torque at 3,750 rpm. Output is sent to the ground via a six-speed Cruise Drive transmission.

The two can be differentiated visually by their bodyworks. The Street Glide ST wears a batwing fairing with a splitstream vent to limit head buffeting and a low-profile dark windshield, while the Road Glide ST is fitted with an aerodynamic shark nose fairing with triple splitstream venting, a low-profile dark windshield and dual Daymaker LED headlamps. A low-profile engine guard and tank console are equipped as standard on both.
In addition to the engine, both the Street Glide ST and Road Glide ST share the same mechanicals bits including the 49 mm forks with dual bending valve suspension technology, adjustable rear shocks, and Reflex linked Brembo brakes with ABS. Other features found on both include the Boom! Box GTS infotainment system with colour touch screen, two fairing-mount speakers and hidden radio antenna.
