Two new Harley-Davidson models showcased
With its 120th birthday approaching, Harley-Davidson has previewed two new CVO models — the Street Glide and the Road Glide. These bikes feature new styling, and more importantly, a new 121 CI (1,982cc) V-Twin engine, complete with VVT.
The CVO range includes the most premium, expensive and almost always, the largest bikes Harley-Davidson makes. This is especially true in the case of the 2023 CVO Street and Road Glide models, which feature a near 2-litre V-Twin engine, equipped with Variable Valve Timing (VVT). While there are no official claimed horsepower or torque figures available yet, it is safe to say they will be more than the 93hp and 158Nm churned out by the 114 CI (1,868cc) V-Twin found on the current Softail and Touring range of bikes in India.
The CVO Glides also feature different front fairings than the ‘regular’ versions and will also have a USD fork with radially-mounted Brembo calipers at the front. Harley has also announced that these two CVOs will have a new infotainment system. Both models will have two paint options to choose from. Further details on these bikes will be revealed on June 7.

How do you create a Christmas tree with crochet? Take notes from crochet artist Sheena Pereira, who co-founded Goa-based Crochet Collective with crocheter Sharmila Majumdar in 2025. Their artwork takes centre stage at the Where We Gather exhibit, which is part of Festivals of Goa, an ongoing exhibition hosted by the Museum of Goa. The collective’s multi-hued, 18-foot crochet Christmas tree has been put together by 25 women from across the State. “I’ve always thought of doing an installation with crochet. So, we thought of doing something throughout the year that would culminate at the year end; something that would resonate with Christmas message — peace, hope, joy, love,” explains Sheena.
