At the heart of the 2021 Harley-Davidson Ultra Limited touring motorcycle, Harley-Davidson relies on a 1868 cc (114 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 100 HP (73 kW) at 5,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 165.4 Nm (122 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 53.5 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (3,000 rpm) and peak power (5,000 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.
On the scales, the Ultra Limited measures 415.9 kg (917 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.24 HP/kg (4.16 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 699 mm (27.5 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,625 mm (64 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 22.71-liter (6 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 5.47 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 415 km (258 miles) between fill-ups.
