Right now Harley-Davidson is throwing a big bash in Milwaukee celebrating its 120th year of producing motorcycles. During this shindig, the motorcycle media is getting a chance to ride the Motor Company’s new 121ci 2023 CVO Street Glide and Road Glide. But ahead of everyone else, Cycle World Editor-in-Chief Mark Hoyer rode on both models in Monterey, California, during MotoAmerica’s Laguna Seca round. 


Both the CVO Road Glide and Street Glide now have variable valve timing, more displacement, redesigned bodywork, new suspension with more rear travel, and a slew of electronic rider aids. Hoyer spent a day riding both models along California's Highway 1—perhaps the best proving ground for a Big-Twin American bagger. 


Read Hoyer’s detailed first ride review of the CVO Glides here, ahead of anywhere else. 


And that’s not the only early exclusive this week.Triumph tossed our UK contributor Adam Child the key to its new Speed 400 single for a ride before anyone else in the world. While he is working frantically to get his words on a page, check out this exclusive first ride video on the 2024 Triumph Speed 400.


As always, there’s more than we can fit into this email. Check out cycleworld.com for additional tests, reviews, and news.

Ride on,
