Harley-Davidson 2025 highlights models and more
New models for 2025
Harley-Davidson will present the new models on January 23, 2025 at 5:00 pm. Particularly expected are an updated Pan America ST and a kind of naked bike, about which many rumors are circulating. In addition, at least three ST models are planned, including a Low Rider S 117 with High Output.

Events 2025: What's coming up?
The year 2025 offers exciting events such as the Hamburg Harley Days and the Bike Days Willingen. Both events will focus on new concepts with extended offers for H.O.G. members and anyone who would like to become one. The focus is clearly on custom bikes - an area in which new accents will be set in 2025. If you are interested in customized Harley-Davidson motorcycles, these events are an absolute highlight.
In the USA, the now annual Harley-Davidson Homecoming Festival takes place again. Harley-Davidson has just announced two top acts: Hank Williams Jr. and Chris Stapleton are expected to take the stage in Milwaukee in 2025, and Stapleton in particular is really cool.
You can find more information about the events on my Events page.
New regulations for motorcycle tires from 2025
Stricter regulations for motorcycle tires will apply from January 1, 2025. Tires with a production date up to 2019 may only be used until the end of 2024. Clearance certificates lose their validity from this date. Drivers should check early on whether their tires meet the new requirements in order to avoid problems. For many drivers, this means checking early and getting new tires if necessary. The TÜV-Sued provides a comprehensive overview of the new rules.
KessTech insolvency: What does this mean?
A topic that moves many: KessTech has filed for insolvency under self-administration. According to the company, however, deliveries and guarantees remain secured. The economic problems appear to have resulted from last year's takeover. Nevertheless, there are positive signs: deliveries, guarantees and the Service should also continue to be guaranteed for older systems. I will keep you up to date on developments.
You can find more details in this article: KessTech.
New start in Regensburg and Kassel
Good news for the community: Harley-Davidson Regensburg will resume operations with a small team on January 16, 2025. At the same time, they are still looking for staff. Maybe don't overrun the company with requests right at the start, give them a few weeks to reorganize!
Also in Kassel something is happening: the new authorized dealer is planning to open before the start of the season. I expect more information on the dealer from Kassel after the presentation of the new 2025 model year.
Registration figures for 2024: a strong December
The 2024 registration figures are available online. Particularly striking: December was unusually strong, as many vehicles were registered with one-day registration in order to avoid the new Euro 5 Plus standard. The figures impressively show how these changes are affecting the market.
You can find a comprehensive analysis of the registration figures at my site.
Conclusion: An exciting year for Harley-Davidson
Harley-Davidson 2025 stands for innovation, exciting events and important changes. Whether it's new models like the Pan America or the challenges posed by new regulations - this year offers a lot of potential. Stay tuned for more updates, reports and exciting insights!
