Harley-Davidson FLHT Electra Glide Standard weight FAQ

What does the Harley-Davidson FLHT Electra Glide Standard weigh ready to ride?

The supplied figures span 772.1 lb (350.2 kg) to 789 lb (357.9 kg) for wet/running weight and 738.1 lb (334.8 kg) to 782.6 lb (355 kg) for dry weight across the years in this page. Wet weight is the better guide to what you actually manage on the road.

Is the Harley-Davidson FLHT Electra Glide Standard heavy compared with other Harley-Davidson motorcycles?

Relatively speaking, it is on the heavier side. The model sits near the 82nd weight percentile in its Harley-Davidson category, so it is heavier than most of the compatible comparison set.

Does the Harley-Davidson FLHT Electra Glide Standard weight change by model year?

Not every covered year uses the same figure. The page groups identical values together and lists the later model years where the supplied weight specification changes.

How much does the Harley-Davidson FLHT Electra Glide Standard fuel weigh?

The listed tank capacity is 4.97 US gal (18.8 L) to 6 US gal (22.71 L). Using approximately 0.745 kg/L gasoline, a full tank is roughly 30.9 lb (14 kg) to 37.3 lb (16.9 kg). That is an estimate for fuel mass, not an official Harley-Davidson curb-weight calculation.

How heavy is the Harley-Davidson FLHT Electra Glide Standard with an average-size rider?

A 180 lb rider brings the simple bike-plus-rider total to roughly 960 lb (435.4 kg) using the representative wet/running figure. Gear and luggage would add more.

Using the listed dry weight plus the calculated fuel mass, the estimated weight with a full tank is 769.2 lb (348.9 kg) to 819.9 lb (371.9 kg). That still may not equal official curb weight because dry-weight definitions can exclude other fluids or equipment.
