What’s New for 2026

As part of the Revolution Max platform update, the 2026 Sportster S gets newly highlighted cooling fins and blacked-out finishes that give the engine a sharper visual appearance. New riding-mode configurations and optimized display features complete the update.

Engine, suspension, and brakes are technically identical to the 2025 model. Stationary noise remains unchanged at 94 dB(A)—and therefore Tyrol-compliant.

Positioning: Not a Cruiser, Not a Naked Bike, Somewhere in Between
