New Harley-Davidson® Audio powered by Rockford Fosgate

Legendary sound is what you can expect from this motorbike audio performance. New components have been developed with the help of Harley-Davidson and Rockford Fosgate, both of whom have pushed the boundaries of technology to build a high-performance audio system for Harley-Davidson bikes. There will be no other audio system available for the 2021 CVO Street Glide and CVO Road Glide models but that provided by Harley-Davidson Audio, powered by Rockford Fosgate and featuring Stage II triaxial speakers.

Daymaker® Adaptive LED Headlamp

To date, Harley-Davidson motorcycles have never had a more modern headlight system than that seen on the 2021 CVO Limited and CVO Street Glide models. When the bike is leaning, 12 extra LED lights are activated to project light into bends to highlight portions of the road that may be dark by regular LED headlights.

Wireless Headset

There are no wires to worry about when you buy a 2021 CVO motorbike, thanks to a Bluetooth® headset that links to the Boom!TM Audio 30K infotainment system. In public mode, the Mesh IntercomTM Network protocol automatically connects to a near-limitless number of riders (no more lost group connections when someone goes out of range). In private mode, it can easily connect with up to 16 riders at a range of up to five miles (8.05km). The Boom!TM Box GTS’s Apple CarPlay microphone requirement may be met with this headset.
