LAB-388-New 2025 Harley Touring Models Released & Virtual Launch Coming

In this podcast episode, we discuss the 2025 Harley-Davidson model release of the touring models.  This is what we refer to as a soft release, meaning these are the models held over from 2024 with no real changes except for color.  We talk about what is released so far and we give our predictions on what will be released during the virtual launch held on January 23, 2025.   As of January 2nd, Harley-Davidson revealed the following six models for 2025: Street Glide Road Glide Road King Special Freewheeler (trike) Tri Glide Ultra (trike) Road Glide 3 (trike) SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE These models appear to be largely carryovers from 2024, with no significant mechanical or cosmetic changes. This "soft launch" is typical for Harley-Davidson, saving the more substantial announcements for their virtual event on January 23rd at 5 PM CST on their YouTube channel. Road Glide 3 & Tri Glide Ultra Interestingly, the Road Glide 3 and Tri Glide Ultra did not see price increases for 2025. The Tri Glide Ultra received updated wheels (19-inch front, 18-inch rear) and is now available in black trim for the first time, offering additional color options. Trim and Paint Options Harley-Davidson continues to emphasize black trim, offering additional color options compared to chrome models. However, this trend has frustrated traditionalists who favor chrome aesthetics. Notable colors for 2025 include: Mystic Shift: A dynamic shade that changes from gunmetal to orange depending on light angles. Whiskey Firestorm & Midnight Firestorm: Featuring ghost flames, exclusive to black trim models. Unfortunately, these unique options are not available for chrome trim enthusiasts.
