The Harley-Davidson Company was founded in 1903 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, United States, and was one of two significant American motorcycle manufacturers that survived the Great Depression alongside Indian Motorcycles.
The Harley-Davidson range grew to include several families of motorcycles with different designations, designs, and characteristics, such as Touring, Softail, Dyna, Sportster, VRSC, VRXSE, Street, LiveWire, and a factory-made custom division, named Custom Vehicle Operations (CVO).
The Harley-Davidson Low Rider was a cruiser motorcycle part of the Dyna series, also known as FXDL. It debuted in 1977 and was known for its distinctive American classic styling and powerful performance.
In 2005, the American motorcycle manufacturer launched the Harley-Davidson Low Rider, which remained largely unchanged, except for color alterations and a displacement increase in 1999.
The 2005 Harley-Davidson Low Rider had equipped standard features, such as a wide pulled-back handlebar, mid-mounted foot controls, a one-piece dual seat, a classic rear fender, a dual chrome exhaust system, and wire-spoke wheels.
In the power department, the motorcycle was brought to life by a 1,449cc four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine fed by an electronically controlled fuel injection system. The 2005 model boasted 67 hp with a peak at 5,200 rpm and 117 Nm (86 lb-ft) torque at 3,500 rpm.
In 2005, the bike had an MSRP of $27,750 with a carburated engine and $1,000 more for the fuel-injected one. In 2023, the bike was for sale with a price ranging from $6,000 to $8,000, depending on its condition.
