2021 Harley Davidson Touring Instrument Cluster Guidelines
The outstanding instrument cluster for the 2021 Harley-Davidson Touring series combined traditional design with contemporary functionality. In spite of embracing modern technology, Harley-Davidson, a well-known brand in the motorcycle industry, has remained to provide riders a distinctive and nostalgic experience.
The 2021 Harley-Davidson Touring models’ instrument clusters featured a large, simple-to-read analog speedometer and tachometer encircled by a digital display. This computerized component provided important data, such as travel information, fuel range, a gear indicator, and more. Both traditionalists and tech-savvy riders were catered to by the integration of analog and digital components. The cluster’s design demonstrated Harley-Davidson’s attention to detail, with chrome accents and illumination that improved visibility day or night. The 2021 Touring models upheld the brand’s dedication to producing bikes that are not only strong and dependable but also iconic and aesthetically pleasant to ride.
INSTRUMENTS
Speedometer
WARNING
Travel at speeds appropriate for road and conditions and never travel faster than posted speed limit. Excessive speed can cause loss of vehicle control, which could result in death or serious injury. (00008a)
With fairing: See Figure 21.
Without fairing: See Figure 22. The speedometer registers forward speed in miles per hour (U.S.) or kilometers per hour (international).
Instrument backlighting activates after a slight delay. Changes to ambient lighting, such as going through a tunnel, may briefly change backlighting.
Tachometer
NOTICE
See the OPERATING RECOMMENDATIONS section. Do not operate the engine above maximum safe RPM as shown under OPERATION (red zone on tachometer). Lower the RPM by upshifting to a higher gear or reducing the amount of throttle. Failure to lower RPM may cause equipment damage. (00159a)
With fairing: See Figure 21. The tachometer measures the engine speed in revolutions per minute (rpm x 100).
Without fairing: See Figure 22. A digital tachometer is displayed in the odometer window.
Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the approximate amount of fuel in the fuel tank.
Without fairing: The fuel gauge is on the left side of the fuel tank. See Figure 23
With fairing: See Figure 21. The fuel gauge is on the instrument panel.
Voltmeter
With fairing: See Figure 21. The voltmeter indicates the measured electrical system voltage. With the engine running above 1500 rpm, the voltmeter should register 13.0-14.5 volts with battery at full charge.
