2024 Harley-Davidson Tri Glide Ultra

The 2024 Tri Glide Ultra: a three-wheeled Ultra Limited. One could make the case it's the ultimate in H-D long-distance touring.

Overview

Harley-Davidson's 2024 trike lineup features three ways (appropriately) to add a third wheel: There's a cruiser, a bagger, and a full-dress tourer. The Tri Glide Ultra is the latter. Essentially a three-wheeled Ultra Limited, the Tri Glide has an unmistakable fork-mounted batwing fairing, Boom! Box GTS infotainment system, rider aids, and a top case that brings luggage capacity to 6.8 cubic feet. Like its three-wheeled stablemates, the Tri Glide has a Milwaukee-Eight 114 engine, but uses the Twin-Cooled version, which uses liquid-cooled heads. The Twin-Cooled M-8 114 produces a claimed 93 hp at 5,020 rpm and 120 lb.-ft. of torque at 2,500 rpm, a tad more power and torque than the oil-cooled version. For the ultimate in rider and passenger comfort over the long haul, the Tri Glide Ultra is a proven package. Let's face it: We all want to become that retired couple you always meet at campsites who are touring the US on a Tri Glide Ultra with a trailer in tow. Who needs an Airstream?

The Tri Glide's top case includes a plush backrest to boost passenger comfort and safety.
