Harley-Davidson CVO Road Glide RR Globally Debuts, Priced Equivalent to Rs 91 Lakh

The CVO Road Glide RR is a limited-edition bagger from Harley-Davidson, priced at a hefty USD 1,10,000 (approximately Rs 91 lakh). It inherits the brand's racing DNA, particularly from the MotoAmerica King of the Baggers series, and is touted as Harley-Davidson's most powerful and dynamic production bike yet. The most notable highlight of this bike is its Screamin’ Eagle 131 ci (2,147cc) V-Twin engine, hailed by Harley-Davidson as the most powerful Milwaukee-Eight variant ever to be factory-installed in any production motorcycle. It produces an astounding 151bhp at 5,750rpm and 204Nm of torque at 4,750rpm. 

This powerhouse mirrors the high-performance powerplants used in the Harley-Davidson Factory Team competition Road Glides and is assembled using premium Screamin' Eagle Stage IV components. It is carefully calibrated to deliver exceptional torque at low RPMs while maintaining power across a broad range, thanks to its advanced camshaft profile and high-flow intake. With a redline set at 6,500rpm, the engine is engineered for peak performance. Some of the unit's key features are CNC-ported heads and 42mm intake and 34mm exhaust valves, a 68mm throttle body, a 7075 aluminium billet clutch basket, Akrapovic titanium exhaust, and reinforced six-speed transmission, inspired by Harley's race bikes.
