Motorcycle specifications Harley-Davidson1920 Road Glide ST 'Enthusiast Fast Johnnie' FLTRXST 2023 Buddy-buddy

Harley-Davidson has decided to take its ST models into another dimension. Where they can express all their performance desires. With the exception of the CVO, the three bikes carrying the ST identity are powered by the brand's biggest engine. But when they join the "Fast Johnnie" collection, they take on a very special charm.

when the Milwaukee roars and the big torque rolls in (17.1 mkg, no less ;-), the Road Glide ST can loudly proclaim the verve of the American muscle cars to which its deco refers. The electric azure blue with white racing stripes is a clear reminder of the Mustangs of the heyday and the mechanical fantasies of Carroll Shelby.

the tank is marked "Bar & Shield" on the right, "Fast Johnnie" on the left. And who's that? Surely it's not the pig with the crazy face?! Yes, it is. The Johnnie in question was pilot Ray Weishaar's mascot in the '20s.
Why Fast? Well, Weishaar and the boys from the Wrecking Crew (the official Harley team of the time) would install the piglet on the tank of their millstone after a victory and give it a lap of honor.

the beast has stood the test of time; its portrait can even be found on the machine of the factory Harley team taking part in the "King of the Baggers". What symbolism: a pig and an eagle on the flanks of a huge motorcycle with an engine pushed to 131 ci or 2147 cm3... America in all its excess. The Road Glide ST isn't far off, except that it's all about touring. Comfort, a huge Shark Nose fork head to fan the air flow, and a superb paint job on top to make you feel good. But if the melody of the Milwaukee Eight isn't enough, the Boom Box GTS provides a hefty dose of sound, with USB, iPhone and Bluetooth connectivity for the phone.
Like the Street Glide ST, the Road is equipped with cruise control, interconnected braking with cornering function, traction control, hill-start assist, tire pressure monitoring, 32-liter panniers, keyless ignition and a single-seater sport seat.

a little bonus: the bike comes with a pair of Scream'in Eagle exhausts, which your dealer will be happy to install for you. Which explains the considerable budgetary outlay required for this limited edition. How many? No details on this subject. All we know is that the ST Fast Johnnie envelope will be 2000 machines, all three models combined
