Harley Davidson FLHT Electra Glide Standard 2020 Service Manual

WebBikeWorld's own review sums up this exact model year in one line: a move back towards simplicity. A stripped-down touring machine, and that's what keeps its price down. Cycle World's own testing confirms just how far Harley took the no-frills approach: it only comes in black, has no infotainment or Bluetooth, doesn't come with ABS in standard trim, and only sports a single seat unless upgrades are purchased — a genuine breath of fresh air against the tech-laden Touring bikes surrounding it in the range. There were no updates to this model for 2020, continuing the design introduced the year before.

Power comes from the Milwaukee-Eight 107, an air-cooled V-twin displacing 1,746-1,753cc, delivering a claimed 111 lb-ft of torque through a 6-speed manual transmission. A hands-on test found it genuinely well-suited to city riding: a beefy 17-inch front Dunlop handles decaying urban infrastructure well, and without the fairing-mounted touring electronics of the pricier trims, the bike felt remarkably agile zipping through tight streets. Three linked 320mm discs slow the 820-lb machine with transparent, well-judged linkage, and standard ABS — a genuine change from earlier model years — proved unobtrusive until you actually needed it in the wet.

Standard equipment is deliberately minimal: electronic cruise control, and a glove box in place of the usual audio system, letting riders disconnect from screens and gadgets. A Solo Touring Seat was designed specifically for the long haul, with sidebags providing genuine everyday utility around town.

2020 US pricing was $18,999 in Vivid Black, the only colorway offered that year — the most affordable entry point into Harley's full Touring lineup.

This factory service manual covers the procedures, torque specs, and diagrams needed to keep a 2020 Electra Glide Standard FLHT running the way it was built to.
