What the weight numbers tell you

Using a model-level dry weight comparison, the Harley-Davidson 1340 Electra Glide Road King is heavier than about 58.9% of 45 Harley-Davidson motorcycles with compatible weight data.
A full tank is not weightless: the 4.99 US gal (18.9 L) listed capacity works out to approximately 31 lb (14.1 kg) of gasoline. This is an estimate rather than a Harley-Davidson curb-weight specification.
The calculated power-to-weight figure is 8.67 hp per 100 lb across years with compatible data. It shows how much engine output is available relative to the bike’s mass.

Harley-Davidson 1340 Electra Glide Road King weight FAQ

How much does the Harley-Davidson 1340 Electra Glide Road King weigh?
