Built around Harley-Davidson's touring motorcycle platform, the 2011 Harley-Davidson FLHTCUSE6 CVO Ultra Classic Electra Glide features a 1802.7 cc (110 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 156 Nm (115.1 lb-ft) at 4,000 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 101.6 x 111.3 mm (4.0 x 4.4 inches) with a 9.2:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the FLHTCUSE6 CVO Ultra Classic Electra Glide measures 406 kg (895 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 757 mm (29.8 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,635 mm (64.4 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.
