2022 Harley-Davidson® Softail® Standard in Tampa FL

The 2022 Harley-Davidson® Softail® Standard in Tampa is an excellent choice for those who want a basic bike but who also care about the feel of the ride. The difference between a Hardtail and Softail is subtle from the outside, but when you are on the open road, the advantages of this body style become apparent. Let’s see what the new Softail® Standard has to offer Harley-Davidson® fans.

Model Overview

The 2022 Harley-Davidson® Softail® Standard is a bobber-style bike that offers a stretched riding position and mid-mount foot controls. It has an old-school look that is ready for adding your custom packages and accessories. It has a low stance that is perfect for cruising the city streets or for longer trips.

The Softail® Standard is powered by a Milwaukee-eight® 107 V-twin engine. The engine is responsive, powerful, and runs smoothly. The best part is that it has the iconic rumble that every Harley fan knows and loves. Its bare-bones style makes it efficient and easy to handle.

The engine makes acceleration and overtaking feel effortless. The Milwaukee-eight® 107 offers 72 horsepower and 99 pound-feet of torque. This might not sound hefty, but when you consider that the 99 pound-feet of torque comes at only 2,500 rpm, you know that the throttle response on this bike is impressive. All you have to do when you want speed is to barely touch the throttle, and you will have what you need. The unique gearing makes this bike perfect for low speeds in city traffic or cruising. This is a versatile bike that is made for a wide range of riding situations.

The biggest advantage of the 2022 Harley-Davidson® Softail® Standard in Tampa is its unique body style. A Hardtail frame includes a design where the front and rear suspension systems are in the same frame. A Softail takes a different approach and includes a separate mini-frame that contains the rear suspension. This design allows for a smoother ride than a hardtail model.

Harley-Davidson® introduced the Softail body design in 1984, and it has become a fan favorite for those who want a classic Harley style but also a smoother ride. One major difference between a Hardtail and a Softail body is that the Softail consists of two separate pieces, and a Hardtail is made in a single piece. Drivers love the increased comfort and stable feel that this design offers.

The Softail® Standard has a seat height of 25.8-inches, which is comfortable for most riders. It has a lightweight design and feels a little stiff. It has a racing-style cartridge form that offers superior damping characteristics. All this adds up to a bike that offers a smooth ride and excellent handling qualities.

The gauges are confined to a 2.14-inch LCD display that has all the basic information you need. The display contains a speedometer, odometer, gear, fuel gauge, clock, trip odometer, range indicator, and tachometer. It is easy to read and lets you keep your eyes on the road.

The Softail® Standard has a bobbed style, but it does not have all the bells and whistles of the more expensive bikes. It is an excellent entry-level bike that is easy to handle for beginners. The best feature of this bike is its versatility. Everything about it is balanced and feels stable.

The no-frills design of the bike includes a solo saddle. What it lacks in amenities, it makes up for in quality. This makes it an excellent base from which to begin personalization and customizing it to make it your own. It has a crisp, clean monochromatic design that has enough chrome to please.

The best way to see why this bobbed-style entry-level bike has so many loyal fans is to contact Harley-Davidson® of Wesley Chapel near St. Petersburg Clearwater Wesley Chapel and surrounding areas to schedule a test ride.
