Everything is new: The uniform frame for the eight Softails with a backbone construction saves manufacturing effort and weight. The triangular swing arm is supported by an inclined mono spring strut on the tubular steel chassis. This creates a continuous line from the steering head to the rear axle.

Bobber hallmarks: high “Mini Ape” handlebars, bellows on the 49er fork and the solo seat, which is not very comfortable for tall guys.

Custom style ex works: The handlebar clamps, which are treated with shrink varnish, contain two-part instruments – it looks very “clean”.

The affordable big twin

The Harley-Davidson Softail Street Bob is the entry into the world of Harley’s Big Twins. Can she keep up with other family members?

Easy Rider: Behind the high “Mini Ape” handlebars it sits upright and sublime. This is the perfect sightseeing bike. The towering handlebars are surprisingly handy and lively thanks to its large lever arm. Just like with the siblings, it eventually grinds the footrests and their outriggers. The lower manifold and muffler can also hit the collar. The Harley-Davidson Softail Street Bob touches down as soon as a dedicated turn is made in town. The sitting position in the solo seat is casual, relaxed only for small drivers. The seat does not give long guys enough freedom of movement, their knees are strangely high.

What can the new Harley tourer do?

Starting price from 15,000 euros

Always equipped with the 107 V2, the Harley-Davidson Softail Street Bob accelerates super gently. That fits. The thrust too. 2,000 tours, and the day is your friend. In the lower gears, 1,500 rpm is enough. The feeling of strength is definitely on the six-hundredweight iron. The shock absorber is slightly drier than the previous Softails, and the Street Bob shock absorber lacks the practical Fat Bob and Breakout knob. Cheap hardware store screws in the field of vision and the gear lever, which is mounted too high ex works, are comforted by the low entry price for Harley standards from 15,000 euros: This is the most affordable Big Twin!
