Harley-Davidson FXDC Dyna Super Glide Custom
Key specifications
Overview
Introducing the 2010 Harley-Davidson FXDC Dyna Super Glide Custom, a quintessential embodiment of the custom-cruiser category that blends a classic American motorcycle aesthetic with modern performance. Positioned as a versatile option for riders who crave both style and substance, the FXDC captures the spirit of freedom and individuality that Harley-Davidson is renowned for. With its iconic silhouette and robust presence, this bike is not just a mode of transport; it’s a statement of character and passion on two wheels. At the heart of the FXDC is the powerful 1584cc V2, four-stroke engine, delivering an impressive 123 Nm of torque at a low 3125 RPM. This engine not only provides exhilarating acceleration but also maintains a smooth, confident ride at cruising speeds. The 6-speed gearbox allows for seamless shifting, ensuring that whether you're navigating city streets or cruising down the highway, the ride remains comfortable and engaging. Combined with an air-cooled system, the engine maintains a classic feel while benefiting from modern electronic sequential port fuel injection, enhancing both performance and efficiency. The bike’s well-tuned suspension, featuring a 49mm polished aluminum front fork and a coil-over shock rear, guarantees a stable ride over varied terrains, making it equally adept at weekend getaways and daily commutes. The FXDC is packed with features that accentuate both its aesthetic and technical prowess. The new black powder-coated engine with chrome accents provides a striking visual appeal, while the low-profile front fender and sport wrap-around rear fender showcase its custom look. Riders will appreciate the comfort of the one-piece, two-up Dyna classic seat, complemented by mid-mounted rider footpegs and standard passenger footpegs for added versatility. The stainless steel pull-back handlebars enhance rider control and comfort, while the Michelin Scorcher tyres ensure optimal grip and handling. With a fuel capacity of 18.80 litres, this bike is ready for long rides, and with several eye-catching color options—including Vivid Black and Flame Blue Pearl—there’s a style to match every personality. **
