2020 Harley-Davidson Superlow 120T Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 2020 Harley-Davidson Superlow 120T touring motorcycle, Harley-Davidson pairs a 1202 cc (73.4 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 67 HP (48.9 kW) at 6,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 96 Nm (70.8 lb-ft) at 3,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 55.7 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (3,500 rpm) and peak power (6,000 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.

On the scales, the Superlow 120T measures 274 kg (604 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.24 HP/kg (4.09 kg per horsepower). 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 1,500 mm (59.1 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 17-liter (4.5 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 5.23 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 325 km (202 miles) between fill-ups.
