Harley Davidson FXSTD Softail Deuce 2000 Black 1:18 Scale

FXSTD Softail Deuce 2000

From the first day the 2000 Harley-Davidson FXSTD Deuce was introduced, Harley-Davidson has had a tough time keeping up with demand. The combination of custom appearance and contemporary features has made the Deuce a highly desirable creation.

Two of the strongest visual cues of the 2000 Harley-Davidson FXSTD Deuce are the stretched fuel tank and the straight-cut rear fender. Perhaps not as obvious are the unique "turbine blade" solid rear wheel, graceful tapered fork legs, and small teardrop headlight.Sitting atop the fuel tank is a full-length chrome console housing the traditional lone speedometer, while curved chrome risers bring the cushioned grips closer to the riders' eager hands.

Like all Softails that year, the 2000 Harley-Davidson FXSTD Deuce carried Harley's new Twin Cam 88B motor, the "B" signifying the added balance shafts that provided smoother operation in this solid-mounted application. At first available only in carbureted form, the 88B gained optional fuel injection for 2001.

The fact that the model was only produced for two years and the fact that the production numbers were relatively low (between 1,800 and 2,500) have resulted in them being hugely collectible. It isn’t known how many survived but the onset of the Great Depression followed by the Second World War likely contributed to the demise of many of them.
