At the heart of the 2009 Harley-Davidson FLHTCUSE4 CVO Ultra Classic Electra Glide touring motorcycle, Harley-Davidson features a 1800 cc (109.8 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 149 Nm (109.9 lb-ft) at 6,500 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 101.6 x 111.3 mm (4.0 x 4.4 inches) with a 9.2:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the FLHTCUSE4 CVO Ultra Classic Electra Glide measures 402 kg (886 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 696 mm (27.4 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,614 mm (63.5 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 22.7-liter (6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
