Harley-Davidson Is Bringing Back The Road King As The Road King STMotorcycle.comDennis ChungTue, September 22, 2026 at 8:38 PM UTCAdd us on GoogleNon-CVO Street Glide ST and Road Glide ST also coming for 2027harley davidson is bringing back the road king as the road king stHarley-Davidson is preparing to bring back the Road King for 2027 as the Road King ST. It will be joined by the Road Glide ST and Street Glide ST, both of which were only available as CVO models in 2026.The confirmation comes to us via newly created landing pages on Harley-Davidson's official website for each individual model's accessories. At the moment, we don't know what the Road King ST, or any of these models will look like, or what accessories will be available, but the mere fact that these landing pages exist suggest that they will be part of the first batch of 2027 Harley-Davidson announcements.harley davidson is bringing back the road king as the road king stWe last saw Harley-Davidson offering a Road King Special in 2025, and the regular Road King in 2022. The base model Road King came equipped with side cases and a windshield, and was powered by the Milwaukee-Eight 107 engine. The Road King Special used the larger Milwaukee-Eight 114 engine, but it lacked the windshield, instead going for what Harley-Davidson called a "factory custom hot rod" look.harley davidson is bringing back the road king as the road king stThe 2027 Road King ST will likely use a Milwaukee-Eight 117 engine like most of Harley-Davidson's heavyweight models, though we don't know whether it will have liquid-cooled cylinder heads like the other touring models. The Road Glide and Street Glide have a small radiator hidden low in the frame disguised as a chin spoiler, but its presence wouldn't be as subtle on the stripped down Road King. That said, Harley-Davidson's ST models tend to have a performance focus, and the Twin-Cooled system would help reduce engine heat and ensure more consistent performance.AdvertisementAdvertisementThe last time we saw the Road Glide ST and Street Glide ST in a non-CVO guise was in 2023, before Harley-Davidson debuted its current touring platform. The 2027 Road Glide ST and Street Glide ST models should be similar to the existing CVO models, but with a smaller, less powerful engine, and without the forged carbon components. We can still expect the ST models to offer more performance-focused suspension compared to the regular Road Glide and Street Glide models, which are tuned more for long-distance comfort.harley davidson is bringing back the road king as the road king stWe expect Harley-Davidson to announce the Road King ST, Street Glide ST, and Road Glide ST along with the models returning for 2027 with new color options. As of this writing, we can confirm that Harley-Davidson has set up 2027 accessory landing pages for all of its 2026 models, including the Deadwood and Super Glide, suggesting they will all be returning. Harley-Davidson has also set up a landing page for the Sprint 440, which the company has already confirmed for 2027.Become a Motorcycle.com insider.
