Thunderbike Dark Fade • Harley-Davidson Street Glide Umbau

A beast right from the factory - now unleashed.

The 2025 Harley-Davidson Street Glide CVO is anything but understated right out of the factory—but in our version, a new front-end setup makes it significantly more aggressive and gives it an even more powerful presence.

The bike’s appearance is dominated above all by the 23-inch front wheel with a spoke design, which transforms the entire silhouette. The bike looks bigger, more imposing, and significantly more aggressive on the road. This setup is made possible by our specially developed triple clamp with a 4-degree rake, which gives the fork more clearance from the frame while ensuring clean, stable riding geometry. The built-in three-piece 15-spoke wheel made of milled aluminum underscores the bike’s sporty character—clean in design, high-quality in finish, and perfectly matched to the overall look.

To complement this, we developed a custom fender that fits snugly and precisely over the large front wheel. The lines are deliberately minimalist and modeled after the shape of the original fender. Thanks to our specially developed adapters, the front fender mounts cleanly to the fork legs, creating a high-quality overall look.

340er Wave-Bremsscheiben

When it comes to performance, this Street Glide consistently takes things a step further. The 340 mm floating wave brake discs ensure precise responsiveness and maximum control. Their striking, sharply defined design is reminiscent of a blade and underscores the aggressive look of the front end.

CVO Performance Setup

The CVO comes standard with a high-quality upside-down fork and radially mounted 6-piston Brembo calipers, but the Wilbers suspension makes the riding experience even more precise. More feedback, greater stability, and noticeably more direct handling make all the difference—especially during dynamic riding.

CVO Paintwork & Details

The very first impression makes a clear statement: the exclusive Raven Fade paint job gives the bike an extraordinary depth. A rich, deep black flows seamlessly into a shimmering gray, appearing darker or lighter depending on the light—a vibrant finish! This intricately designed finish is typical of the CVO line—every detail is coordinated, and everything fits together seamlessly.

Particularly striking are the details that run throughout the entire bike. Black chrome surfaces, black bolts on the engine, and finely tuned accents in orange-red create a harmonious overall look. From the primary cover to the rocker boxes to the logos and ignition cables, everything is color-coordinated.

We’ve replaced the original license plate holder with our Down & Inside license plate holder in combination with the Inside Plate, which includes integrated license plate lighting—for a cleaner rear view and a streamlined silhouette.

The installed Jekill & Hyde exhaust system in a dark chrome finish delivers the perfect sound. It not only produces a powerful, commanding sound but is also fully customizable.

Signature LED Lights

The lighting design further emphasizes the bike’s modern character. The signature LED lights are fully integrated; traditional turn signals are no longer visible as separate elements. Instead, a flowing light signature extends from the headlight to the fairing, giving the bike a futuristic, high-quality look.

VVT 121 Engine

At the heart of the bike is the Milwaukee-Eight VVT 121 engine, equipped with variable valve timing. This technology ensures consistent power across the entire RPM range and delivers performance exactly when it’s needed.

Infotainment & Sound System

The Street Glide also sets new standards in infotainment. The Skyline OS system with a large 312 mm TFT display is more reminiscent of a modern luxury vehicle than a classic motorcycle. The package is complemented by the Rockford Fosgate Stage III sound system, which delivers clear, assertive sound even at higher speeds.

Comfort meets design

Comfort is not neglected. Heated grips that blend seamlessly into the design, along with a continuous line extending all the way to the footrests, create a harmonious overall look. The retrofitted Fused handlebar combines elements from the Mini Ape and Z-Bar, offering a blend of aggressive styling and a relaxed riding position.

The look is rounded out by the Spirit Leather seat, which not only looks great but also offers comfort on long rides. Red contrast stitching, a mix of smooth and perforated leather, plus extra padding and an elegant medallion make it a real standout.
