2010 Harley-Davidson FXDB Street Bob Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Positioned in Harley-Davidson's custom - cruiser motorcycle lineup, the 2010 Harley-Davidson FXDB Street Bob features a 1584 cc (96.7 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 4 HP (2.9 kW) while maximum torque reaches 153 Nm (112.9 lb-ft) at 3,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 2.5 HP per liter, the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.
On the scales, the FXDB Street Bob measures 290 kg (639 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 680 mm (26.8 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,630 mm (64.2 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 17.3-liter (4.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
