At the heart of the 2010 Harley-Davidson FXSTC Softail Custom custom - cruiser motorcycle, Harley-Davidson utilizes a 1584 cc (96.7 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 127 Nm (93.7 lb-ft) at 3,000 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 95.3 x 111.1 mm (3.8 x 4.4 inches) with a 9.2:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the FXSTC Softail Custom measures 319 kg (703 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 670 mm (26.4 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 paired with a rated consumption of 6.72 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 293 km (182 miles) between fill-ups.
