Positioned in Harley-Davidson's custom - cruiser motorcycle lineup, the 2012 Harley-Davidson FLTRXSE CVO Road Glide Custom utilizes a 1802.7 cc (110 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 165.4 Nm (122 lb-ft) at 3,750 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 FLTRXSE CVO Road Glide Custom measures 383.3 kg (845 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 676 mm (26.6 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,613 mm (63.5 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 22.71-liter (6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
