2013 Harley-Davidson CVO Road King Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Engineered by Harley-Davidson for the touring motorcycle segment, the 2013 Harley-Davidson CVO Road King features a 1802.7 cc (110 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 160 Nm (118 lb-ft) at 3,750 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and belt final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 101.6 x 111.3 mm (4.0 x 4.4 inches) with a 9.2:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the CVO Road King measures 385.1 kg (849 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 673 mm (26.5 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,613 mm (63.5 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 22.71-liter (6 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 5.74 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 396 km (246 miles) between fill-ups.
