The 2025 Harley-Davidson® Sportster® S in Harrison, AR

The 2025 Harley-Davidson® Sportster® S is a high-performance motorcycle designed with a combination of power, advanced technology, and refined engineering. This model continues the Sportster® legacy with significant mechanical and technological advancements that enhance the riding experience.

Revolution® Max 1250T Engine

The Revolution® Max 1250T engine powers the 2025 Harley-Davidson® Sportster® S, delivering strong acceleration and precise throttle response. A liquid-cooled V-Twin configuration optimizes power distribution and maintains performance across various riding conditions. Variable valve timing (VVT) adjusts camshaft timing to balance power and efficiency, providing strong torque at low RPMs and sustained power at higher RPMs. A lightweight design reduces overall weight and improves handling, making the motorcycle more responsive.

Suspension System

The suspension system features a 43mm inverted fork with full adjustability. The front forks allow riders to modify compression, rebound, and preload settings for a tailored ride. A piggyback reservoir rear shock offers three-way adjustability to optimize damping and spring preload. Rear shock travel has increased to 3.2 inches, improving ride quality without affecting seat height. 

Braking System

A Brembo™ braking system ensures strong stopping power. A radial-mounted, monoblock, four-piston front caliper grips a single disc, offering consistent braking response. The rear braking system features a two-piston caliper with a disc, improving overall braking balance. The Anti-lock braking system (ABS) prevents wheel lockup, maintaining traction under emergency braking conditions.

Tire and Wheel Configuration

Dunlop® H-D® Series tires provide a high-performance grip. A 160mm wide front tire and a 180mm wide rear tire increase surface contact for better traction. Cast aluminum wheels reduce rotational mass, improving handling and acceleration. The high-performance radial tires contribute to ride stability and road adherence.

Exhaust System

A high-mounted stainless steel exhaust system optimizes heat dispersion and maintains efficient airflow. The system is designed to route exhaust gases efficiently while keeping components cool. Brushed stainless steel construction provides durability and heat resistance. The exhaust placement minimizes interference with rider comfort while maintaining a distinct, aggressive styling.

Instrumentation and Connectivity

A four-inch TFT full-color display serves as the motorcycle’s primary interface. The display provides real-time data, including speed, fuel level, and trip information. Bluetooth® connectivity allows riders to sync their mobile devices for hands-free communication and navigation. The display integrates with the H-D® app for turn-by-turn GPS guidance and ride analytics.

Ride Modes and Performance Customization

Three pre-programmed ride modes—Sport, Road, and Rain—adjust throttle response, power delivery, and traction control settings. A customizable ride mode allows riders to fine-tune parameters based on personal preference. These modes enhance adaptability across different riding environments.

Rider Safety Enhancements

Advanced rider safety enhancements include cornering ABS, cornering traction control, and drag-torque slip control. Cornering ABS modulates brake pressure based on lean angle to prevent wheel lockup. Cornering traction control adjusts power output to prevent rear-wheel slip during turns. Drag-torque slip control mitigates rear-wheel lockup during deceleration, maintaining stability.

Lighting and Visibility

An all-LED lighting system includes a headlamp, tail lamp, and turn signals. The headlamp provides a broad, even beam pattern for improved nighttime visibility. The lighting system enhances safety by making the motorcycle more visible to other road users.

Comfort and Ergonomics

A low seat height of 28.9 inches provides confidence-inspiring stability at stops. A reshaped seat improves rider comfort for extended trips. 

Fuel Capacity and Efficiency

A 3.1-gallon fuel tank is designed to optimize weight distribution and balance. The Electronic Sequential Port Fuel Injection (ESPFI) system ensures precise fuel delivery, maximizing efficiency without sacrificing performance. The system maintains optimal combustion ratios for smooth acceleration and consistent power output.

Paint and Finishes

Available color options include Billiard Gray, Brilliant Red, Vivid Black, and Mystic Shift. The finishes are designed for durability and resistance to wear. The tank features a "Checkered V" medallion, referencing the Sportster® lineage. The blacked-out engine and exhaust contrast with the paint scheme, adding to the motorcycle’s aggressive appearance.
