Harley-Davidson has raised the stakes in high-performance motorcycling with the launch of its most powerful and expensive street bike to date. The CVO Road Glide RR, a 151-horsepower machine, comes with a jaw-dropping $110,000 price tag and will be limited to just 131 units worldwide.

This limited-edition model is designed for riders who demand extreme performance and exclusivity. Built with cutting-edge materials, the CVO Road Glide RR features a lightweight carbon-fiber body, a reinforced aluminum swingarm, and a race-inspired titanium exhaust system that shaves 50 pounds off the weight. The result is a high-performance bagger that weighs 750 pounds yet delivers a power-to-weight ratio unmatched in its class.

“Inspired by the track and engineered for the street, the CVO Road Glide RR represents the ultimate in performance,” said Jochen Zeitz, Harley-Davidson’s chairman. “This exclusive series showcases everything we’ve learned from racing to create the most advanced street bike we’ve ever built.”

A machine built for speed and status

Under the fairing lies a 131-cubic-inch Milwaukee-Eight V-twin engine, the largest and most powerful Harley-Davidson has ever installed in a street bike. This powerhouse delivers 151 horsepower, a figure more commonly associated with compact sports cars than motorcycles.

The CVO Road Glide RR is not just about raw power; it’s also a statement of prestige. At more than twice the price of the standard CVO Road Glide (which starts at $45,999), this model is built for collectors and enthusiasts seeking the pinnacle of Harley-Davidson craftsmanship. Every detail, from its advanced suspension to its aerodynamic design, is engineered for superior handling and stability.

“This is a machine that blurs the line between the racetrack and the road,” said Brad Richards, Harley-Davidson’s Vice President of Design. “We wanted to create something truly special—something that stands as a symbol of our engineering excellence.”

Harley-Davidson’s fight for the future

Harley-Davidson has long been the symbol of American motorcycling, but in recent years, the company has struggled to attract younger riders. Motorcycle ridership in the U.S. has declined, and Harley’s efforts to appeal to new demographics have met mixed results.

In 2019, the company introduced LiveWire, its first electric motorcycle, in an attempt to modernize its lineup. However, slow sales led to LiveWire being spun off as a separate brand in 2021. More recently, Harley launched the Pan America 1250, its first adventure bike, which has been well received but remains a niche product compared to the brand’s traditional cruisers.

The CVO Road Glide RR is a clear message that Harley-Davidson remains committed to performance and exclusivity. While the company continues to explore new markets, this bike reinforces its dedication to the high-end, ultra-premium segment—a strategy that could ensure its survival in a changing industry.

“We are evolving as a brand, but at our core, we will always be about power, performance, and craftsmanship,” Zeitz added. “The CVO Road Glide RR is proof that Harley-Davidson is still pushing boundaries.”

Whether this bold move will help the company secure its place in the future of motorcycling remains to be seen. But for now, the CVO Road Glide RR stands as a testament to Harley’s enduring legacy and engineering prowess.
