Overview

Introducing the 2013 Harley-Davidson CVO Ultra Classic Electra Glide, a masterclass in touring motorcycle design, where luxury meets performance. As part of Harley-Davidson's Custom Vehicle Operations (CVO), this bike is not merely a means of transportation; it’s a statement of individuality and sophistication. Priced at approximately $37,599 in the U.S., €38,795 in Europe, and £29,995 in the UK, the CVO Ultra Classic is targeted at riders who demand the pinnacle of comfort and technology on long journeys, making it a worthy investment for the discerning motorcyclist. At the heart of the CVO Ultra Classic is a powerful V2, four-stroke engine, boasting a displacement of 1,802.69 ccm (110 cubic inches) and delivering an impressive torque of 160.01 Nm (118.0 ft.lbs) at just 3,750 RPM. This engine, equipped with Electronic Sequential Port Fuel Injection (ESPFI), ensures smooth acceleration and optimal fuel efficiency, achieving an average consumption of 5.74 liters per 100 km (40.98 mpg). Coupled with a 6-speed gearbox and a belt final drive, it provides a seamless riding experience, whether you’re cruising along the highway or navigating through city streets. The handling is further enhanced by a well-engineered chassis, featuring a rake of 26 degrees and a trail of 170 mm, allowing for confident cornering and stability at speed. The CVO Ultra Classic doesn’t just perform; it pampers its riders with a plethora of features designed for comfort and convenience. With a generous fuel capacity of 22.71 liters (6.00 gallons), you can embark on extended journeys without frequent stops. The motorcycle’s advanced braking system, featuring double disc brakes with 4-piston calipers up front and a single disc with a 2-piston caliper at the rear, ensures responsive stopping power. The bike is available in a stunning array of color options, including Anniversary Diamond Dust with Palladium Graphics and Tribal Orange with Thunderblade Graphics, allowing riders to express their unique style. Additionally, the electric starter and the meticulously crafted seat, with a height of just 706 mm (27.8 inches) at its lowest setting, provide an accessible and enjoyable riding experience for both seasoned riders and newcomers alike. **
