I think you're wrong there. It looks more like a sideways baby bath tub. A Street Glide is how a Harley is supposed to look.

17:50 it'll fit a fully loaded 1911 or a Browning Hi Power with couple of extra mags.

Just bought a new 2024 Rode Glide in White Onyx Pearl and blacked out. Love it!!

These bikes cost over $30,000 OTD….why in the hell must we pay more to upgrade the damn seats or anything else for this kind of money. That being said I would buy the SG. I have a 2002 Fatboy right now. Someday I would love the new SG.

I can't think of anything other than MAYBE the exhaust, adding a seatback and passenger boards. The seat is excellent, imo.

Roadglide hands down. I have an 03 Roadglide that I bought new and have rode for 21 years. Just bought a 2024 Roadglide and I’m so glad I waited. Harley knocked it out of the park this year.

The new switches should have been backlit

I did make the mistake of taking a demo ride. I didn't buy it, but I am trying to figure out how to pay for it. It is that good.

I test rode a RG, I’m sticking to the SG. Agree regarding the new wind deflection for the SG. On my 2020, I HAD to get a Klockwerks windshield. Not needed with this new set up, but I am 5’6”. Great, comprehensive review! Thx.

Dont like the look of the RG Fairing, The SG is way more stylish. I would go for the SG, but I need to test ride it first. Especially wind buffeting is something I am very sensible about.

Oh that’s interesting. I like them both but I’m def into the shark nose on the RG

I did a test ride of both ‘24 RG and SG. You’ll definitely need higher windscreens. The wind buffeting is pretty bad with stock windscreens.

I traded my ‘22 Road King (107) in on a ‘24 White Onyx Pearl Road Glide. Didn’t take long to decide after I saw the Harley new era reveal video. Sadly I still have a few more weeks before I can get on the road up here in the frozen north. Gonna be a horribly long wait 😊

Traded my beloved 22 RK on a 24 road glide also, no regrets. Great bike!

I went in to the dealer yesterday with my wife just to look at the sweatshirts. Have owned my 16 streetglide special since new with thousands in upgrades. Saw the 24 roadglide in blue burst blacked out. Test road it as i have never ridden a roadglide. Needless to say i bought the 24 roadglide immediately, handles like a dirt bike gorgeous bike and the new suspension is amazing. Amazing bike worth every dollar.

I think they nailed the design of the new road glide. I think they really leaned into that new industrial design from more modern Harleyx that I had really liked to see. Shame I already bought an Indian Challenger and it's still better equipped than the new road glide.

@robb4964

I was very, very close, to buying a challenger. I told the salesman that when he was trying to mark up the bike.I ended up buying a RG. Challenger is bad ass though.

I agree about the two bikes. It feels like you’re sitting on top of the Streetglide but it feels like you’re sitting inside the Roadglide. I’ll be buying a 2024 Roadglide very soon. And yes I took one for a ride.

Flat out the best review video on KZread! Many thanks!

I bought a street glide over the road glide because the fairing turns with the handle bars and there is not such a gap between the rider and the fairing

Great motorcycles both. I think I would go for the Street Glide. It looks incredible. I haven't tried any of these bikes, so the information I have about them is KZread. However, there have been problems with the CVOs as I understand it, and that in itself is not unusual with brand new motorcycle models. Anyway: I picked this up: (and it doesn't sound good) - On the Road Glide, there have been problems with the fairing at high speeds, a problem that cannot be solved quickly and easily. It is now speculated whether the top speed has been lowered to 100 miles per hour for that reason? (In a new upgrade) Now these aren't machines you buy for top speed and such, but 100 miles? On a long nice straight road and in the right mood... Will you be passed by a Twin Cam eventually? As fantastic as these new bikes are, I think, as I always think. Maybe best to wait a year or two.

Hi there and Thanks for your informative inputs. I like the whiskey fire and blackout color match however I am doubting that the blackout will show more ware and tare from the road after a while contrary to chrome. I would like your opinion on the quality and sustainability of the blackout paint. TK

prefer the batwing, prefer the fixed fairing. always going with street glide. not to mention SG supposed to be a little lighter than the RG

Great review. I test road the Road Glide with the intention of hating on HD. Dang, I'm in line to place my order in with the long tour package. Amazing bike!!!!

Nice looking shift linkages. Myself, I ordered a pair of SS Heim joints online that fits the stock linkage rod, purchased my own bolts, installed, and haven’t looked back.

I currently have the RGS 2022 in Redline Red. Going for a test ride tomorrow on both. Love the Whiskey Fire but that Pearl White is sweet looking.

Keep in mind also, the headlight on the RG puts out much more light.

I went with the 2024 road glide black with the chrome, love it

Thanks brother. Congrats on your new bike!

Just bought a 2024 Streetglide billiard gray, love it. Rides so smooth at any speed. I didn't test drive the Roadglide, but watching this video makes me think I should have tried it out. Either way, love my Streetglide.

I took a blacked out whiskey fire SG home last Friday. I’m 6’ 2” and it’s plenty comfortable. I’m glad for that because I really don’t like the look of the RG faring.

I'm 6'7" and like Street Glide, I never liked Road Glides even though the new 2023 and 2024 models are so much better looking than the previous ones but still I don't find them much appealing.

What color 2024 CVO you feel looks the best and will have to best long term highest value overall? Copperhead or Legendary Orange?

Whiskey fire and black is so damn good looking in the RG

I’m a Stan for the road king and wish Harley would’ve given it some love this year too

i considered upgrading but i have 21 ultra in snake venom and have stage 2 and legend rear on them so kinda trying to figure out if its worth trading and paying 65 a month more for

You have one of the best colors ever. Plus your upgrades there is no way I would buy a new model. The bugs will need to be worked. Don't be a test dummy. Ask the 2017, 2018 buyers with the original oil pump.

Nice but I'm still a Heritage guy

Both are the exact same bikes, the only key differences is their fairing. The road glide while a superb riding beast of a motorcycle I prefer the SG instead in which I purchased one just recently. It's an amazing new motorcycle and I hope that Harley continues to innovate! Please please add reverse and heated grips and seats! too!

After getting to test ride both, the Road Glide is definitely the winner for me as well. You can't beat that riding position.

I think the SG looks great as well. The RG doesn't look aggressive to me. It looks like it is smiling. I think they took a step back with the taillights. They all kinda look like mid 80 Oldsmobile Cutlass taillights. Not sure yet about the new bag design. They just look way too high for a road bike, all just my opinion. Maybe everything will grow on me with time.

great review, thanks! I still can't understand why there are 2 models! just merge them into one and call it The Glide. The firing and what comes around it doesn't justify having 2 models.

Just bought the 24 SG in Green Chrome with a few add ons like the new speaker system with amp, extended windshield, luggage rack, and passenger backrest. I rode both bikes and loved the higher handlebar on the RG, but im just not a big fan of the fairing. I bought a brand new Chevy van in 21 with 6.6 liter engine, and it cost less than this SG. I was hesitant because I live in Buffalo, and the riding season is short here. But the bike is quite simply bad ass in my opinion, so I pulled the trigger. I have read some scary reviews about the new 24 HD, so Im crossing my fingers that I made the right choice. I can't wait to take this bike on some road trips. Ride safe, everyone!

Your Android Auto information left me puzzled. I'm not sure if you're incorrect or if this is limited to HD. Android Auto continues to work just fine with my Goldwing.

Road both, hate the road glide, from looks to the way it handled, don't like a front end that stays fixed, and the feel is not right in curves

Trying to figure out how much of the new engine feel is actually just from quicker throttle response (different throttle map) and not just the increase in power and torque. I installed a throttle modulator on my 2022 and it's like a completely different bike if I use the various modes.

The road glide always seemed to turn in slower than the street glide not to mention the road glide is somewhat an ugly duckling compared to thr bat wing street glide, but to each his own, bat wing for me.

Road glide was awesome to test ride.

Well let’s be honest with ourselves. Aftermarket cams are almost always gonna perform better. But I will say it’s seriously pretty impressive. The cam boasts a 21 percent increase in horsepower which is pretty decent.

I don't like the fixed front fairing I want my fairing to turn with me

From my understanding… it’s not a one time charge… I think it’s for a period of three years… Correct me if I’m wrong

Not sure you even mentioned the new motor is top head water cooled (which is a big deal imho). Nice to see Harley making some advancements. You can thank Indian for some of this, and it’s a good thing, we finally have two companies competing and improving, and we as customers are the ones that benefit fm it. Just curious, what’s with the stationary bike review, you come off like a salesman and I guess as a content creator that’s basically what you are 2 these companies. Tks for the info, peace!

Not sure you can say there is one clear choice. I’m sure some will like the way one feels over the other, there are some subtle differences. Between these two, don’t think you can say one stands out over the other. It’s a matter of how comfortable you are on one or the other and which you like visually, each of which will vary by individual.
