Engineered by Harley-Davidson for the custom - cruiser motorcycle segment, the 2013 Harley-Davidson Sportster SuperLow pairs a 883.3 cc (53.9 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 74.6 Nm (55 lb-ft) at 3,500 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 76.2 x 96.8 mm (3.0 x 3.8 inches) with a 8.9:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Sportster SuperLow measures 259.9 kg (573 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 648 mm (25.5 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,506 mm (59.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 17.03-liter (4.5 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 4.61 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 369 km (229 miles) between fill-ups.
