2006 Harley Davidson Streetglide FLHX

The brand new 2006 Harley-Davidson® Street Glide (FLHX) is the hottest new bike on the streets; combining speed, beauty, and handling in one unparalleled machine.

The Street Glide commands presence on the street. It is almost 745 pounds, is eight feet long, and it has a seat height of almost 27 inches. The wheelbase alone is practically 64 inches and the Street Glide clears the ground by 4.7 inches. The carburetor and electronic sequential port fuel injection (ESPFI) full five gallon fuel tank will get you up to 46 miles per gallon down the highway or 37 – 39 miles per gallon across the city, and you'll get an oil capacity of 3.8 quarts.

The Street Glide also offers the satisfaction of power and dependability of electronic convenience. Count on the Twin Cam 88® engine and 1450 cc and 88.00 ci displacement to get you there, while the electronic speedometer, odometer, resettable tripmeter, tachometer, fuel guage, volt meter, oil pressure, and air temp guage keep up with the details for you.

But those stats are comparable to the entire 2006 Harley Davidson line. Here are a few unique features that the Street Glide alone has to offer:

• A 40 watt, Harman/ Kardon audio system with an AM/ FM radio, WB, CD and MP3 player
• A solo headlight
• Bullet turn signals on the front and on the rear
• Rear suspension; low profile
• Saddlebag latches that are color matched
• Ground effects on the rear fender with tri-line

Once you've decided to pick up a new Street Glide, you'll only have one question to answer: Would you prefer that in “vivid black”, “black cherry pearl”, “black pearl”, or “deep cobalt”?
