Overview

Introducing the 1992 Harley-Davidson FLHS 1340 Electra Glide Sport, a classic touring motorcycle that captures the spirit of freedom and adventure that Harley-Davidson embodies. Positioned as a sportier alternative within the iconic Electra Glide lineup, the FLHS was designed for riders seeking a balance of long-distance comfort and spirited performance. With its distinctive styling, powerful engine, and ample storage, this motorcycle caters to those who relish the open road while retaining the brand's signature rugged charm. At the heart of the Electra Glide Sport lies a robust 1337cc (81.58 cubic inches) V2, four-stroke engine, delivering an impressive 64 horsepower at 5000 RPM. This powerplant is characterized by its air-cooling system and an 8.5:1 compression ratio, which together produce a thrilling yet manageable ride. The 5-speed gearbox allows for smooth shifts, making highway cruising a breeze while still providing the punch needed for spirited acceleration. Riders can expect a solid and confident performance, thanks in part to its dual disc front brakes and single disc rear brake setup, which offer reliable stopping power when it’s time to slow down and take in the views. The FLHS is not just about power; it’s also equipped with features designed to enhance the touring experience. With a generous fuel capacity of 19 liters (5.02 gallons), riders can embark on long journeys without the constant worry of refueling. The bike's thoughtful ergonomics ensure comfort over extended rides, with a plush seat and a riding position that promotes relaxed cruising. The combination of ample storage space and the sleek, aerodynamic design makes the Electra Glide Sport both practical and eye-catching. **
