Harley-Davidson Street Glide (2010 - 2016)

On paper, the Harley-Davidson Street Glide looks like a good all-around cruiser. It is equipped with a small-sized windscreen and panniers, so the bike is supposed to be capable of long-distance touring. And, thanks to a built-in four speaker audio system, you will be able to enjoy music on those long rides.

Unfortunately, despite its aerodynamic design and large-capacity fuel tank, the Street Glide has a terrible fuel economy. On top of that, the build quality is also not that great and the bike is unreliable.

A2 Licence Compliance

The Harley-Davidson Street Glide is a 1584cc A2-friendly bike. It has a power output of 56 kW (75 bhp), which exceeds the 35 kW (47 bhp) limit needed for an A2 licence. The bike has to be restricted by at least 37.5% to become A2 licence compliant.


You will need a restrictor to ride the Harley-Davidson Street Glide on an A2 motorbike licence. See the restrictor kits section to check out what restrictors are available for the Harley-Davidson Street Glide.
