At the heart of the 2004 Harley-Davidson FXD-P Dyna-Defender custom - cruiser motorcycle, Harley-Davidson relies on a 1442.15 cc (88 cu in) air-cooled engine powerplant. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 115 Nm (84.8 lb-ft) at 3,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and belt final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 95.3 x 101.6 mm (3.8 x 4.0 inches) with a 8.9:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the FXD-P Dyna-Defender measures 313.4 kg (691 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 711 mm (28 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1 mm (0 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 19.3-liter (5.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
