Harley-Davidson Road Glide

Ex-showroom Delhi, the Road Glide range runs from ₹45,75,000 (Billiard Gray and Mystic Shift) to ₹46,30,000 (Silver Blue Red and Iron Horse) across 3 variants.

That makes it the most expensive of the 53 cruisers we have reviewed. Its closest price rivals are the Street Glide (₹3,25,000 less) and the Breakout (₹11,39,000 less).

On the road in Delhi the base Road Glide comes to ₹51.24 Lakh: ₹45,75,000 ex-showroom, ₹3,91,000 in Delhi road tax and registration (8.5%), ₹1,12,233 for first-year insurance and ₹45,750 in tcs 1%. Dealers add handling and accessory packs on top; both are negotiable.

The Road Glide is rated at 16 kmpl (claimed mileage). Treat that as a ceiling: real-world figures are usually 15–25% lower.

Among the 40 cruisers we have reviewed it ranks 38th for mileage, 9 kmpl below the group average of 25 kmpl.

Power comes from a 1923cc single producing 107.2 bhp and 175 Nm, paired with a 6 Speed. At 380 kg the power-to-weight figure is 282 bhp per tonne, which ranks 27 of 51 in its class here.

Torque is high relative to peak power, which is what you want for pulling away with a pillion and riding a gear higher in traffic rather than chasing the redline.

Chassis hardware includes dual-channel ABS, a slipper clutch and traction control, with a disc, 300 mm, 4 piston caliper up front and disc, 300 mm, 1 piston caliper at the rear.

Seat height is a low 720 mm, so riders around 5'2" and above can plant both feet at a stop.

On safety kit the Road Glide has dual-channel abs, front disc brake, rear disc brake, tubeless tyres, traction control, side-stand engine cut-off and hazard lamps. Dual-channel ABS is the one item on this list worth paying for if it is variant-dependent.

Against Street Glide, Breakout or Fat Boy, it gets colour tft console, bluetooth connectivity, turn-by-turn navigation and ride modes that most rivals skip.

What it lacks: rear monoshock, which rivals at this price offer. None of these are deal-breakers, but they show where the money went.

It is offered in 7 colours: Mystic Shift, Billiard Gray, Vivid Black, Iron Horse Metallic, Brilliant Red, Blue Burst and Atlas Silver Metallic. Colour availability varies by variant and dealer stock.

Standard warranty is 2 years, unlimited km.

Service reach is the weak point: Harley-Davidson has about 60 dealer and workshop touchpoints across the country. Confirm there is one within reach before you sign.

The Road Glide launched in 2025, so long-term reliability and resale data are still thin. That is not a mark against it, just a reason to prefer the standard warranty and keep service records.
