Built around Harley-Davidson's touring motorcycle platform, the 2002 Harley-Davidson FLHRCI Road King Classic relies on a 1449 cc (88.4 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 109.5 Nm (80.8 lb-ft) at 3,300 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through belt final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 95.3 x 101.6 mm (3.8 x 4.0 inches) with a 8.8:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the FLHRCI Road King Classic measures 345 kg (761 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 683 mm (26.9 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,592 mm (62.7 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 18.9-liter (5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
