Key specifications
Overview
The 2014 Harley-Davidson Dyna Super Glide Custom stands as a beacon of classic American cruiser style, combining the raw power and heritage of Harley with modern engineering finesse. As part of Harley’s Dyna series, this motorcycle is positioned for riders seeking a custom-cruiser experience that delivers both comfort and performance. With a starting price of $13,549, it offers a unique blend of nostalgia and contemporary rideability, appealing to both seasoned riders and newcomers drawn to the iconic Harley legacy. At the heart of the Dyna Super Glide Custom is a robust 1,573 cc (96 cubic inches) V2, four-stroke engine that cranks out an impressive 124.75 Nm (92.0 ft-lbs) of torque at just 3,000 RPM. This powerplant is designed for effortless cruising, delivering a thrilling yet smooth ride. Whether you’re carving through winding roads or cruising down the highway, the six-speed gearbox and electronic sequential port fuel injection (ESPFI) work in harmony to provide seamless acceleration and efficient fuel consumption of 5.47 liters per 100 km (43.00 mpg). The air-cooled engine not only embodies the spirit of traditional Harley performances but also ensures that you feel connected to the bike's heritage as you ride. The Dyna Super Glide Custom is not just about raw power; it’s also packed with thoughtful features and modern technology. The chassis combines a 29° rake with a trail of 119 mm (4.7 inches), contributing to its agile handling while maintaining stability at high speeds. The single-disc brakes—4-piston at the front and 2-piston at the rear—offer reliable stopping power, instilling confidence on every ride. With a seat height of 668 mm (26.3 inches), the bike is approachable for a wide range of riders, while the 18.93-liter fuel tank ensures you have the capacity to cover long distances in style. Available in eye-catching color options like Mysterious Red Sunglo and Brilliant Silver Pearl, the Super Glide Custom allows for personal expression while staying true to the Harley aesthetic. **
