The 2026 Road Glide® 3 rewrites what a Harley-Davidson trike can be. Harley-Davidson describes it as leaner, meaner, and built with more muscle, more performance, and more connection to the road, all while keeping the confidence of a three-wheel platform.
At Republic Harley-Davidson in Stafford, riders can see that this model as a next-generation touring trike that blends Road Glide styling with a broader stance, updated aerodynamics, modern rider tech, and everyday rideability. Republic’s site also lists the 2026 Road Glide 3 in inventory and showroom materials, confirming dealership relevance for this model page.
Performance
At the center of the 2026 Road Glide 3 is the Milwaukee-Eight® VVT 117 engine, producing 105 HP and 129 ft-lb of torque. Harley-Davidson says the VVT system widens the powerband, improves efficiency, and gives riders stronger response whether cruising highways or accelerating hard.
The new trike platform also gets a completely redesigned rear suspension. Harley-Davidson states the de Dion-style setup reduces unsprung weight by about 68 pounds and more than doubles rear wheel travel to 5 inches, helping deliver smoother rides and sharper corner response.
Design
The redesigned Sharknose fairing gives the Road Glide 3 its unmistakable profile while helping channel air around the rider with less buffeting. A low-profile smoked windscreen, gloss black cast-aluminum wheels with machined accents, and reshaped rear fenders add to the trike’s wider, more aggressive stance.
Harley-Davidson also highlights all-LED lighting from front to back, plus exposed rear lug nuts and hot-rod-inspired details that make the 2026 Road Glide 3 feel more muscular and modern than earlier trike designs.
Comfort and tech
Touring comfort is a major part of the 2026 Road Glide 3 package. The model includes a redesigned seat, reshaped passenger footboards, soft-touch passenger grab handles, and a weather-sealed rear trunk with 2 cubic feet of luggage capacity.
Technology is centered around Harley-Davidson’s Skyline™ OS infotainment system and a 12.3-inch full-color TFT display. The trike also includes Bluetooth connectivity, Apple CarPlay compatibility, AM/FM audio, USB-C support, and optional embedded navigation.
