Key specifications
Overview
Introducing the 2011 Harley-Davidson FXDWG Dyna Wide Glide, a quintessential custom-cruiser that embodies the spirit of freedom and rebellion that Harley-Davidson is renowned for. With its striking design and powerful performance, the FXDWG stands as a statement piece on the open road, appealing to riders who appreciate classic styling combined with modern engineering. Priced at approximately $14,499 in the US and available in a palette of eye-catching colors—including Vivid Black and Chrome Yellow with Flames—this motorcycle invites you to make it your own, whether you’re cruising through city streets or embarking on a long-distance adventure. At the heart of the Dyna Wide Glide lies a robust 1573.25 cc V2, four-stroke engine, delivering a remarkable 125 Nm of torque at just 3,000 RPM. This power plant is not only designed for exhilarating acceleration but also offers a smooth, responsive riding experience that makes every twist of the throttle an adventure. Pairing this powerhouse with a 6-speed gearbox, riders will find that the bike shifts seamlessly, allowing for an engaging ride whether you're navigating urban traffic or cruising along the highway. The air-cooled engine, with its compression ratio of 9.2:1 and Electronic Sequential Port Fuel Injection, ensures that you get the perfect mix of power and efficiency, making it a reliable companion for any journey. The FXDWG boasts a range of features and technologies that accentuate its performance and comfort. Its mild steel tubular frame is not only designed for durability but also provides a stable and responsive ride, thanks to a rake of 34 degrees and trail of 130 mm. The suspension system, featuring a polished aluminum fork with dual-rate springs at the front and a coil-over shock at the rear, delivers a comfortable ride while absorbing bumps on the road. Safety is prioritized with a double-disc front brake system and a single-disc rear brake, ensuring confidence-inspiring stopping power. With a seat height of 25.5 inches, the Dyna Wide Glide is accessible to a broad range of riders. **
