From Lincoln to the Open Road: What’s New in the MY2025 Harley-Davidson® Lineup
Hey, have you checked out the new MY2025 Harley-Davidson® Lineup yet? Let me tell you, this year’s bikes are something else. You know that feeling when you fire up a Harley-Davidson® and the rumble settles into your bones? That perfect blend of tradition and innovation? Yeah, they nailed it this time. Lincoln, Nebraska, with its mix of open highways, scenic byways, and that unmistakable Midwestern charm, is the kind of place that deserves motorcycles built to handle it all. And H-D® delivered.
Let’s start with the 2025 Harley-Davidson® Street Glide®. It’s always been a favorite for riders who want that classic touring profile but with serious muscle underneath. For 2025, H-D® gave it an upgrade where it counts. The Milwaukee-Eight® 117 engine delivers that deep, satisfying power, making long hauls across Nebraska’s endless roads feel effortless. It’s got that unmistakable batwing fairing, but this year, they fine-tuned the aerodynamics, which means less wind resistance and a smoother ride when you’re cutting through those stretches of Highway 34. Oh, and the new LED lighting? Sharp. It doesn’t just make the bike look great—it lights up the road so cleanly that nighttime rides around the Salt Valley Lakes feel almost effortless.
Now, if you’re looking for a different style of long-distance comfort, the 2025 Harley-Davidson® Road Glide® is stepping up this year in a big way. You can feel the difference as soon as you twist the throttle—same Milwaukee-Eight® 117 V-twin engine as the 2025 Harley-Davidson® Street Glide®, but paired with a redesigned sharknose fairing that cuts through the wind like nothing else. There’s something about hitting the open road, the sky stretching wide over the Nebraska plains, and feeling how planted this bike is. The suspension has been refined to ensure a smooth ride, from city streets to the backroads near Branched Oak Lake. The Skyline™ OS got a serious upgrade too, keeping everything at your fingertips while you focus on what matters—the ride.
Now, say you want to make a statement—something bold, something that turns heads when you roll up to the Haymarket on a Saturday night. The 2025 Harley-Davidson® Breakout® is calling your name. It’s back with that stretched chopper look and a massive rear tire that grips the pavement with authority. The Milwaukee-Eight® 117 Custom engine in this one hits differently—it’s built for punchy acceleration, perfect for city cruising and open stretches alike. The handlebars sit just right, putting you in that aggressive yet comfortable stance. You pull up, twist the throttle, and that low, rumbling rumble commands attention. There’s nothing subtle about this bike, and that’s exactly why it’s going to be a favorite in Lincoln this year.
If you’re like me and love a mix of performance and practicality, then the 2025 Harley-Davidson® Low Rider® ST is the one to check out. It’s got that West Coast style, high bars, and a fairing that gives it a little bit of that performance bagger vibe. But this year, it’s even more refined. The Milwaukee-Eight® 117 High Output engine is built to pull hard, and when you pair it with a lightweight frame, you get a machine that feels aggressive in the corners yet stable on the straights. Picture this: You take off from downtown Lincoln, ride out towards the rolling hills around the Missouri River, and when you pull up to a scenic overlook, you know you’ve got a machine that can handle both the thrill of the ride and the long haul back home.
Now, if you want the top of the line, the best H-D® is offering this year, the 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST is where it’s at. H-D® went all in on this one. We’re talking 127 horsepower from the new Milwaukee-Eight® 121 High Output engine, a sleek, performance-inspired design, and details that make this bike stand out in every way. The braking is sharper, the ride is more precise, and every component feels like it was made for riders who demand the absolute best.
No matter which one speaks to you, the MY2025 Harley-Davidson® Lineup is stacked with motorcycles that bring something fresh to the table while keeping that unmistakable H-D® soul intact. They’ve refined what needed refining, added power where it counts, and made these machines even more thrilling to ride. If you’re in Lincoln, you owe it to yourself to swing by Frontier Harley-Davidson® in Lincoln, NE, and see these bikes up close. Nothing beats sitting in the saddle and feeling the weight, the balance, and the raw potential in these machines. And if you’re serious about finding the right ride for your next adventure, scheduling a test ride is a must.
So, what’s it going to be? Are you rolling through the city on a 2025 Harley-Davidson® Breakout®, tackling the highways on a 2025 Harley-Davidson® Road Glide®, or going all-in with a 2025 Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Road Glide® ST? Whatever you choose, 2025 is looking like one hell of a year to ride.
