We review the new 2023 Harley-Davidson Street Glide Special (same as the Road Glide Special - apart from fairing and handlebars), in Industrial Yellow/ Vivid Black with Black Finish.
One of the best touring motorcycles on the planet - and all the others are Harleys too!
This in-depth review captures the essence of what this touring motorcycle is all about. Filmed in spectacular scenery around the Horseshoe Pass in North Wales, the video is a joy to behold for any motorcycle lover.
We look at the engine, torque, power, handling and ride, comfort, seating position, styling, panniers, boom box stereo, sat nav, radio (topped by 4 beautiful analogue gauges), wheels, price, and much more.
Find out if this is the motorbike for YOU, and who it is not for.

This video is another immaculate piece of art. I love this bike. The bike of my dreams. I would not buy it so much for touring, but because I cannot think of anything better for my spirit than to ride this on the open highway listening to my favorite rock albums during a morning ride to a cafe 1 hour or 2 away from where I live. This channel has the same values regarding motorcycling that I have: traditional brands, sturdy materials, beautiful designs, commitment to the lifestyle, and always stating the subjective and the objective without fear. Here is to you, Mr Darcy & The Ol' Man! Have a great weekend with motorcycling, good food and plenty of rest. Thank you for your service!

Street Glide is my favourite Harley. It is supremely comfortable, agile at slow speeds, engine has mountains of torque, and is a joy to ride. It only has 2 negatives: Pushing it around, and the eye watering price. One of the finest examples in the world of classically styled touring motorcycles.

Very well said. I ride for 50 years all types of bikes, but I never rode a Harley. I like some of Harley models (since 2018). In a great majority of Softail models I feel cramped or I feel the air box touching my leg. But sometimes i feel tempted . I reached the conclusion that maybe the price per kg/Lbs. is not so much higher than in a "normal".bike. The question is that I dont need to buy so many Kg/Lbs to have great pleasures. Yes; its a question of sensorial pleasure; not about perfomance, dynamics, or charge/pilion capacity. In fact in GB or anywere else in Europe a 125cc is more or less enought, regarding the legal limits as you said. I love the torque and the stock exhaust sound music from both my Royal Enfield Classi 500 euro 4 and from my Moto Guzzi Breva 750. Do I need rationaly anything else?. The answer is Nooooo!.

Beautifully designed and quite pleasing to the eye. Harley Davidson has stepped up the quality of the components and the fit and finish. They make a fine machine. I just haven't been able to swallow that big price tag to pull the trigger and put one in my garage. Maybe it's my retirement present to myself...

I couldn’t agree more with your description of what this bike is for… I road tested a Road Glide and a Sport Glide on the same day. Road glide has been the bike of my dreams (until I road tested one). The Sport glide is what I went for because everyday social riding is what I do and the road glide would certainly be overkill for Sunday riding. If I ever go across Europe though I’d be going for the Road / Street glide over my Sport glide. Great video, keep up the good work 👍🏻

I ride a 21 street glide special, it’s stage 2, some other mods also, and it’s the best bike I’ve owned. Whether local runs, long distance, these street glides do everything well. They look badass also. I have a Softail slim in my garage also, for local riding or other, I generally pick the street glide.

Never owned one. Ridden more than a few. Forward controls aren't my personal favorite. Always thought they were too Expensive, too Heavy and too Slow... They're not really slow any more but they still tick those first two boxes. I know lots that have owned them and switched. I know lots that do currently own Harley and wouldn't ride anything else. It's a personal choice. My choice is still to be made... Keep up the excellent content...

I have to say though, that Harley Davidson just makes the best looking touring bikes in the world! Imo of course. They are expensive and heavy, but man, there’s nothing like a Harley Davidson!

I refer to them as "the Iffy Stand".. The fairing fixed to the frame is the "Shark Nose" and the one floating on the front end is the "Bat Wing", both are classic, though with the single headlamp I find the Bat Wing more so and the Shark Nose can look particularly bitchin'.. You probably know how well the handling tightens up with some progressive springs and longer units at the rear, the remote reservoirs work particularly well too. I think it's great that Harley haven't ironed out the character of the Iffy stand, even after all this time.

I went and had a look at one of these, today, at our local Harley dealer. I've got to say, fit and finish was not what I expected it to be. Very clearly, all sorts of components come from different manufacturers. There were obvious differences in paint finishes throughout the bike. I had my mate have a look at what I was seeing, and he agreed. Perfectly polished on the for legs, a bit of peel on the triple trees, and just an overall presentation of "thin" paint across all the components. And the paint on the "big" components, tank/fairing/guards and panniers, didn't make you stand back and go "Wow", either. It just looked a bit "cheap". The black "crackle" finish on the cases looked cheap, at best. It just didn't scream "premium". And don't mention the war! The exhaust is an afterthought. And what ever happened to chrome and polished aluminium? Isn't that why you buy a Harley? It has been years since I've been into an HD dealership. Contrary to popular belief, the service was great. But honestly, the product seemed a bit "Chinesium", for my liking, compared to only a few years ago. O.K, probably a decade or so. Keep your eyes open if you're buying one of these, new. You pays your money.

I honestly don't know the answer to that. I had a look at a couple of Kawasaki's, last week, and I'd say that the paint finish was pretty similar to the Harley Davidson, nothing to write home about. You've given me something to think about. But then again, I was in a Mazda dealership, not too long ago, and you could go swimming in the paint, it was that deep. Once again, you've given me something to think about and I'll have to pay more attention. Interesting. @@Kevin97587

Nice bike, but not really ideal for the kind of riding I like to do, which is just as well. Here in Denmark, where we are blessed with probably the world's highest vehicle taxation, the Street Glide Special costs a little more than double the UK price. No, I'm not joking, so the Harley lifestyle is a little overpriced for me.

PLEASE don't ever use the phrase "reached out" again, ever. The worst verbal affectation since "like". A person on the verge of suicide may "reach out" to someone. Harley "got in touch", "dropped you a line", "called" or even just "spoke" to you. Aarrrghhhh (Nice enough bike though, if you like that sort of thing. And Spain? Is that still a plan?

I'm with you. I HATE the color schemes on this year's Harleys. I love the white pearl with a lot of chrome Harleys! If I'm going to spend $30K on a frickin' bike I want it to look like the most beutiful thing you've ever seen! And Harley missed that mark this year. There should be oodles and oodles of chrome and a white so deep that you can see your soul! That's the bike I would spend $30K on (or at least consider it!) Not this stuff. Not at all.

Nice bike, horrific colours. Based on the last few Harley’s I’ve ridden, slightly better paint quality than a Royal Enfield. But don’t take it out in winter. Sorry, or not, R18 wins 100 times over and over again.
