Overview

Introducing the 2024 Harley-Davidson Softail Standard The 2024 Harley-Davidson Softail Standard embodies the spirit of freedom and the open road that Harley is renowned for, all while catering to riders seeking a customizable cruiser experience. Positioned perfectly within the custom-cruiser category, this motorcycle offers a blend of raw power, sleek design, and modern technology, making it an appealing choice for both seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers to the Harley lineup. With a starting price of $14,999, it stands as an accessible entry point into the world of Harley-Davidson, promising an engaging ride without compromising on performance or style. Power Meets Performance At the heart of the Softail Standard lies the formidable Milwaukee-Eight® 107 engine, which delivers a robust 149.2 Nm of torque at just 3000 RPM. This powerhouse, with a compression ratio of 10.0:1, ensures that every twist of the throttle translates into exhilarating acceleration and a thrilling ride experience. The engine's air cooling and electronic sequential port fuel injection work harmoniously to enhance efficiency while offering a commendable fuel consumption rate of 5.00 litres/100 km (47.04 mpg). Coupled with a 5-speed gearbox and a belt final drive, the Softail Standard promises smooth gear transitions and a refined riding experience, allowing riders to effortlessly glide through urban streets or embark on long-distance journeys. Key Features and Modern Technology The 2024 Softail Standard doesn’t just excel in performance; it’s also packed with features designed for comfort and convenience. The bike is equipped with dual-bending valve 49 mm telescopic front suspension and a hidden rear monoshock that guarantees a comfortable ride, absorbing bumps and ensuring stability. The low seat height of 655 mm (25.8 inches) makes it accessible to a wide range of riders, while optional ABS on both front and rear brakes enhances safety. Available in striking color options of Vivid Black and Billiard Gray, the Softail Standard invites personalization, allowing riders to make it their own, whether through accessories or customizations. **
