Engineered by Harley-Davidson for the touring motorcycle segment, the 2010 Harley-Davidson FLSTSE CVO Softail Convertible pairs a 1800 cc (109.8 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 131 Nm (96.6 lb-ft) at 2,500 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 111.1 mm (4.0 x 4.4 inches) with a 9.2:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the FLSTSE CVO Softail Convertible measures 340 kg (750 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 650 mm (25.6 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 19.7-liter (5.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
