Overview

Introducing the 2010 Harley-Davidson FXSTC Softail Custom, a stunning embodiment of American cruiser culture that melds timeless design with modern engineering. Positioned within the custom-cruiser category, this bike offers an inviting entry point into Harley-Davidson's legendary lineup, catering to both seasoned riders and newcomers alike. With a price tag starting at US$ 16,999, the FXSTC Softail Custom is as much about style as it is about performance, making it a strong contender for anyone looking to turn heads on the open road. At the heart of the FXSTC is a robust 1584cc (96.66 cubic inches) V2 engine, which delivers a torque-rich performance with 127 Nm (93.7 ft.lbs) at just 3000 RPM. This four-stroke powerhouse is designed to provide a thrilling ride, whether you're cruising along the highway or navigating through city streets. The 6-speed gearbox offers smooth transitions, allowing you to harness the engine's power effectively, while the Electronic Sequential Port Fuel Injection ensures that each ride is both efficient and exhilarating. This motorcycle's air-cooled design, paired with a comfortable seat height of just 670 mm (26.4 inches), makes it exceptionally accessible for riders of various sizes. The FXSTC Softail Custom is replete with features that enhance both comfort and performance. Its mild steel tubular frame, characterized by a rectangular section backbone and expertly welded junctions, delivers incredible stability and strength. The hidden, horizontal-mounted rear suspension, along with a responsive front telescopic suspension, ensures a smooth ride over various terrains. With a ground clearance of 129 mm (5.1 inches) and a fuel capacity of 19.70 litres (5.20 gallons), this bike is designed for those who appreciate long rides without frequent stops. Color options such as Vivid Black and Scarlet Red add a personalized touch, allowing riders to express their unique style. **

Pros

  • Exceptional Torque: The V2 engine provides impressive low-end torque, enhancing acceleration and making it perfect for both city riding and highway cruising.
  • Customizable Aesthetics: With various color options, the FXSTC allows riders to choose a finish that reflects their personality.
  • Comfortable Ride: The low seat height and well-engineered suspension make it a comfortable choice for long-distance rides.

Cons

  • Weight: At 304 kg (670.2 pounds), the bike may feel heavy for some riders, especially when maneuvering at low speeds.
  • Fuel Consumption: While decent for a cruiser, the fuel consumption of 6.72 litres/100 km (35.00 mpg) may not be the most economical in its class.
  • Limited Storage: The bike's custom design may not offer ample storage options for longer trips, requiring additional accessories for carrying gear.
