The 2013 MY Harley Davidson XL883L Sportster Police has, at its heart, an air-cooled, 883cc, Evolution powerplant that boasts 74 Nm of torque and is mated to a dependable, five-speed manual transmission. As all the models from the MoCo that are intended for law enforcement use, it has several improvements that increase performance and comfort, such as the special latches in the saddlebags, to facilitate access while behind the bars, a longer travel rear suspension with updated tuning for increased comfort, a 4.5 gallon fuel tank for increased range, a final drive ratio for smooth, off-the line acceleration, and 18"/17" front and rear tires for improved maneuverability at lower speeds.
