Engineered by Harley-Davidson for the custom - cruiser motorcycle segment, the 2006 Harley-Davidson FXDLI Dyna Low Rider relies on a 1442.2 cc (88 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 67 HP (48.9 kW) at 5,200 rpm while maximum torque reaches 115.3 Nm (85 lb-ft) at 3,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 46.5 HP per liter and a 2,200 rpm working window between peak torque (3,000 rpm) and peak power (5,200 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.
On the scales, the FXDLI Dyna Low Rider measures 304.8 kg (672 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.22 HP/kg (4.55 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 655 mm (25.8 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,641 mm (64.6 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 17.78-liter (4.7 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
