With such a significant anniversary being celebrated in 2023, Harley-Davidson has pulled out all the stops to ensure that the milestone is honoured accordingly. The headline anniversary edition is the ‘very-limited, super-premium' CVO Road Glide Limited Anniversary model, offering what Harley-Davidson states is its most intricate paint scheme ever offered. Panels of Heirloom Red are applied over a base coat of Anniversary Black, each outlined with a bright red pinstripe and a hand-applied gold paint scallop. There are also subtle details dotted within the panels, portraying the head and wings of a soaring eagle.
The eagle appears again, this time in an art deco style, on the gold-plated tank medallion, while additional details include an Alcantara seat with gold and red stitching, gold-tone powertrain inserts and bright red rocker boxes and pushrod tube collars. Pricing for this anniversary edition sits at £50,395 and will be limited to just 1,500 examples worldwide.
An alternative version of the anniversary paint scheme will be offered on six additional special editions, with the designs inspired by early Harley-Davidson motorcycles. Each will feature a classic panelled paint scheme, based around the Heirloom Red colour, and outlined with a darker Midnight Crimson fade and bright red pinstriping. An art deco eagle tank medallion, red powertrain inserts and seat covers with red side panels and gold Harley-Davidson logo are also included.
