Harley-Davidson FLSTN Softail Deluxe weight FAQ
What does the Harley-Davidson FLSTN Softail Deluxe weigh ready to ride?

Is the Harley-Davidson FLSTN Softail Deluxe heavy compared with other Harley-Davidson custom/cruiser motorcycles?
Relatively speaking, it is on the heavier side. The model sits near the 79th weight percentile in its Harley-Davidson category, so it is heavier than most of the compatible comparison set.
Does the Harley-Davidson FLSTN Softail Deluxe 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 FLSTN Softail Deluxe fuel weigh?
The listed tank capacity is 4.99 US gal (18.9 L) to 5.2 US gal (19.7 L). Using approximately 0.745 kg/L gasoline, a full tank is roughly 31 lb (14.1 kg) to 32.4 lb (14.7 kg). That is an estimate for fuel mass, not an official Harley-Davidson curb-weight calculation.
How heavy is the Harley-Davidson FLSTN Softail Deluxe with an average-size rider?
A 180 lb rider brings the simple bike-plus-rider total to roughly 904 lb (410 kg) using the representative wet/running figure. Gear and luggage would add more.
How heavy is the Harley-Davidson FLSTN Softail Deluxe after filling the fuel tank?
Using the listed dry weight plus the calculated fuel mass, the estimated weight with a full tank is 724 lb (328.4 kg) to 727.7 lb (330.1 kg). That still may not equal official curb weight because dry-weight definitions can exclude other fluids or equipment.
What is the Harley-Davidson FLSTN Softail Deluxe dry-to-wet weight difference?
The supplied model-year data shows roughly 29.1 lb (13.2 kg) to 31.1 lb (14.1 kg) between dry and wet/running weight. The exact gap can vary by year and by the manufacturer’s weight definition.

How many cc does the Harley-Davidson FLSTN Softail Deluxe have per pound?

Motorcycle specifications can vary by model year, market, equipment and the exact dry/curb-weight definition. Calculated fuel-weight and ratio figures on this page are estimates derived from the supplied specifications. Confirm critical figures in the owner’s manual or on the official Harley-Davidson website.
