Overview

Introducing the 2010 Harley-Davidson FLHX Street Glide, a motorcycle that epitomizes the spirit of American touring. Positioned firmly in the touring category, the Street Glide seamlessly blends style, comfort, and performance, making it a favorite among riders who crave open roads and long-distance journeys. With its iconic “Batwing” fairing and sleek lines, the FLHX not only turns heads but also offers a host of features designed for those who appreciate the ride as much as the destination. At the heart of the Street Glide is a powerful 1584cc (96.66 cubic inches) V2 engine that delivers a robust 127 Nm (93.7 ft-lbs) of torque at just 3500 RPM. This four-stroke powerhouse is equipped with an Electronic Sequential Port Fuel Injection (ESPFI) system that ensures smooth power delivery and impressive throttle response. Coupled with a 6-speed gearbox and a belt final drive, the Street Glide offers a riding experience that is both exhilarating and effortless. Whether cruising along the highway or navigating through city streets, the bike's air-cooled engine provides the reliability and performance that Harley-Davidson is renowned for, creating an engaging and spirited ride. The FLHX Street Glide is packed with features that enhance comfort and convenience. Riders will appreciate the full-length, height-adjustable footboards, which allow for a custom fit, while the one-piece, two-up classic seat provides ample cushioning for both rider and passenger. The Harman-Kardon® Advanced Audio System ensures that your favorite tunes are just a button away, transforming your journey into a concert on wheels. Additional highlights include ABS brakes for added safety, light-smoked windshields for optimal visibility, and injection-moulded GTX® saddlebags that offer both style and practicality with secure locking mechanisms. With a variety of color options from Vivid Black to Scarlet Red, the Street Glide allows you to express your individuality on the road. **

Pros

  • Comfortable Touring Experience: The height-adjustable footboards and plush seating make long rides enjoyable for both rider and passenger.
  • Powerful Performance: The robust V2 engine ensures strong acceleration and torque, perfect for highway cruising.
  • Advanced Features: The Harman-Kardon audio system, ABS, and durable saddlebags add practicality and safety to your touring experience.

Cons

  • Weight: At 355 kg (782.6 lbs), the Street Glide can feel heavy at low speeds, which may be challenging for less experienced riders.
  • Limited Off-Road Capability: While excellent for paved roads, the Street Glide's design and suspension are not suited for off-road adventures.
  • Fuel Economy: The larger engine, while powerful, can lead to higher fuel consumption compared to lighter touring models.
