Harley Davidson FLHXS Street Glide Special (2016)

Harley Davidson FLHXS Street Glide Special (2016)

The Harley-Davidson FLHXS Street Glide Special is the ultimate expression of American freedom on two wheels, where stripped-down bagger style meets highway comfort and usable technology. At its heart lies the High Output Twin Cam 103 engine, delivering a perfect blend of power and refinement.

With Project RUSHMORE enhancements, this bike has taken the hot-rod bagger formula to new heights, featuring a Gloss Black inner fairing, Reflex Linked Brakes with ABS, and the Boom! Box 6.5 GT infotainment system as standard equipment. The Batwing fairing’s Splitstream vent reduces rider head buffeting, while the innovative Harley-Davidson Touring chassis withstands the demands of long-haul touring.

The result is an extraordinary machine that recalibrates the expectations of the touring motorcyclist. With electronic controls and infotainment at your fingertips, aerodynamics honed in the wind tunnel, and bodywork shaped by the industry’s most-respected styling team, this bike is a true masterpiece. The road trip will never be the same, as the Harley-Davidson FLHXS Street Glide Special sets a new standard for freedom and adventure on two wheels.
