Technical Overview
2012 Harley-Davidson FLSTFB Softail Fat Boy Lo Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Built around Harley-Davidson's custom - cruiser motorcycle platform, the 2012 Harley-Davidson FLSTFB Softail Fat Boy Lo pairs a 1688 cc (103 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 133.8 Nm (98.7 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 111.3 mm (3.9 x 4.4 inches) with a 9.6:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the FLSTFB Softail Fat Boy Lo measures 331.6 kg (731 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 616 mm (24.3 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.
