Overview
Introducing the 2006 Harley-Davidson FLHTCUI Ultra Classic Electra Glide, a striking embodiment of American touring excellence and custom-cruiser comfort. Positioned as a flagship model in Harley’s renowned lineup, this bike blends iconic aesthetics with cutting-edge technology, making it a favorite for riders who crave both style and substance. Priced at approximately $19,795, the Ultra Classic is designed for those who demand long-distance touring capabilities without sacrificing the rich heritage and rugged appeal associated with the Harley-Davidson brand. At the heart of the Ultra Classic lies a robust V2, four-stroke engine with a displacement of 1442.15 ccm (88 cubic inches) that delivers an impressive torque of 116.61 Nm (86.0 ft-lbs) at 3,500 RPM. This powerful engine, combined with a 5-speed gearbox and a belt final drive, ensures a smooth and responsive ride, whether you’re cruising down the highway or navigating city streets.

Beyond its impressive performance, the 2006 Ultra Classic is loaded with features designed for ultimate comfort and convenience on long rides. The double disc brakes in the front and a single disc at the rear ensure reliable stopping power, while a generous fuel capacity of 18.92 liters (5.00 gallons) means fewer stops at the pump and more time on the open road. Riders can also customize their experience with a range of stunning color options, including Vivid Black and Black Cherry, allowing for personal expression in a classic format. Additional comforts like spacious saddlebags, a plush seat, and advanced audio systems turn this cruiser into a mobile haven for any adventure. **
