Harley-Davidson Street Bob Special Edition
Key specifications
Overview
Introducing the 2014 Harley-Davidson Street Bob Special Edition, a custom-cruiser that perfectly encapsulates the spirit of rebellion and freedom that the iconic brand is known for. With its minimalist design and raw performance, the Street Bob stands out in Harley's lineup as a bike that caters to riders who appreciate a stripped-down aesthetic coupled with powerful engineering. Whether you’re cruising down the highway or navigating city streets, this motorcycle combines classic styling with contemporary performance, appealing to both seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers to the Harley-Davidson family. At the heart of the Street Bob Special Edition lies a robust 1689.61 ccm (103.10 cubic inches) V2, four-stroke engine. It delivers an impressive torque of 124.75 Nm (92.0 ft.lbs) at just 3000 RPM, ensuring that riders experience exhilarating power right from the get-go. The engine’s 6-speed gearbox, paired with a belt final drive, provides smooth acceleration and effortless highway cruising. The air-cooled design, coupled with a 9.6:1 compression ratio, means that you can enjoy the traditional Harley rumble while still benefiting from modern fuel efficiency, boasting a respectable consumption rate of 5.47 litres per 100 km (43.00 mpg). With a low seat height of 648 mm (25.5 inches), this bike is not only powerful but also accessible, making it a perfect choice for a wide range of riders. The Street Bob Special Edition isn't just about power; it's also about style and innovation. One of its standout features is the flat drag-style handlebar, which replaces the stock mini-ape bar, giving the bike a sportier look and feel while lowering its profile for a more aggressive stance. The single disc brakes, with a 4-piston fixed setup in the front and a 2-piston floating design in the rear, offer reliable stopping power, inspiring confidence in every ride. The bike's dimensions are thoughtfully designed, with a rake of 29.0° and a trail of 119 mm (4.7 inches), ensuring agile handling and maneuverability that urban riders will appreciate. Wrapped in a sleek black finish, the Street Bob is as visually striking as it is mechanically sound. **
