2007 Harley-Davidson FLHR Road King Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Engineered by Harley-Davidson for the touring motorcycle segment, the 2007 Harley-Davidson FLHR Road King pairs a 1573 cc (96 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 125.6 Nm (92.6 lb-ft) at 3,500 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 95.3 x 111.3 mm (3.8 x 4.4 inches) with a 9.2:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the FLHR Road King measures 348.8 kg (769 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 759 mm (29.9 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 18.92-liter (5 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 5.22 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 362 km (225 miles) between fill-ups.
