Harley’s 2026 new-model tease is a thing of the past, kind of, after revealing some of its 2026 bikes. However, the new line-up will be added to from 14 January, 2026. 

Calling it ‘Chapter 1’, Harley-Davidson has revealed new Street Glide and Road Glide models, although the brand’s Grand American Touring range is set to welcome six more bikes as part of a future chapter reveal. 

Set to be unveiled are new limited edition Street and Road Glide models, a CVO Street Glide, CVO Street Glide Limited, CVO Street Glide ST and CVO Road Glide ST.

Moving to the American company’s cruiser line, a Low Rider S has been revealed for 2026 alongside new Low Rider ST, Heritage Classic, Breakout, Fat Boy, and Street Bob models.

The diverse line-up of cruisers “includes six very distinctive models, each presenting a specific stylistic personality, from nostalgic to high performance to boldly custom”, says H-D in a press release.

Each model features a full suite of Rider Safety Enhancements by Harley-Davidson, and the same Milwaukee-Eight 117 powertrain. Although there are slight differences with the intake and exhaust valves, cam profiles, and ride mode programming, meaning performance is tailored to match each cruiser model’s personality.  

The brand’s sport segment has also received a boost for 2026, with a new Sportster S, Nightster Special, and Nightster all coming to the fore.

All three models gain new engine covers as part of their 2026 update. Furthermore, a new option package for the Nightster model is available, which features a Blood Orange paint with graphics inspired by Harley-Davidson flat track race bikes.

Chrome exhaust shields and 14-spoke cast aluminium wheels have also been fitted. Harley’s Sport models will begin to land at authorized H-D dealerships globally in early 2026.

Harley’s Pan America 1250 Special, and Pan America 1250 ST Models are also new models for 2026, and they too will land in dealerships worldwide from early 2026. 

As part of the chapter one reveal, most models for 2026 have undergone light updates. The full line-up can be found on Harley’s official website, as well as more information on what new models will make up ‘Chapter 2’.
