Engineered by Harley-Davidson for the custom - cruiser motorcycle segment, the 2014 Harley-Davidson CVO Softail Deluxe utilizes a 1688 cc (103 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 107.7 Nm (79.4 lb-ft) at 3,000 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 98.4 x 111.1 mm (3.9 x 4.4 inches) with a 9.7:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the CVO Softail Deluxe measures 354.7 kg (782 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 622 mm (24.5 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,638 mm (64.5 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 18.93-liter (5 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 5.6 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 338 km (210 miles) between fill-ups.
