Engineered by Harley-Davidson for the custom - cruiser motorcycle segment, the 1999 Harley-Davidson FXD Dyna Super Glide utilizes a 1450 cc (88.5 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 68 HP (49.6 kW) at 5,400 rpm while maximum torque reaches 116.6 Nm (86 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 46.9 HP per liter, the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.
On the scales, the FXD Dyna Super Glide measures 301 kg (664 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.23 HP/kg (4.43 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,587 mm (62.5 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 18.6-liter (4.9 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 165 km/h (103 mph).
