First up, Harley says the new Street Bob is the lightest of its Softail models, and powered by the new Milwaukee-Eight engine. Considering it also boasts 114-cubic-inches of said eight-valve V-twin, it’d be a good guess that it won’t lack for grunt. Harley officially says there’s 119 lb-ft of torque and that the revitalized 2021 is 9-per-cent quicker to 96 km/hr than the previous-generation Street Bob. If you
do need more grunt, Milwaukee will also sell you a Screaming Eagle III kit, with huge 4.155-inch pistons and an SE8-447 big-bump cam that pumps those 114 cubes up to 122 c.i.d and 15 per cent more horsepower. Let the fast times roll.

It was a big day on Tuesday for American bike maker Harley-Davidson, which for the first time decided to present the novelties for the new model year through a digital event called H-D 21. We got to see most of the plans the bike maker has for the new year, but some things, like the full details on the Pan America, were left out (we expect more on that at the beginning of next month). 12 photos

Harley-Davidson 2021 tour lineup confirmed:
The 2021 lineup consists of the Electra Glide Standard, Road Glide Limited, Road Glide Special, Road King, Road King Special, Street Glide, Street Glide Special, and Ultra Limited.
With this increase in displacement comes a small boost in horsepower from 85bhp to 92bhp and a little boost in torque from 106ftlbs to 115ftlbs. On the assumption you might want to use your extra horses to bring along a friend, the Street Bob 114 also comes with a pillion seat and pegs, rather than the solo set up on the 107.
Offering the 114 option now makes the Street Bob one of the more attractive Softails. As such a simple bike, it’s the perfect base for customising but choosing the Street Bob previously meant picking the small engine (which obviously makes you less of a biker…).
