Nice video, my friend. I bought the 2023 Chief Bobber Dark Horse, same color, with the stage 1 kit (air cleaner is more flush). Absolutely LOVE it. It's a perfect bike if you like the raw bike experience without the comforts of a bagger. I use a backpack just fine for my riding, no need for bags. Love the torque, it's a blast to ride! Stay safe, my friend.

I think they left the settings on sport mode - if you switch it down to standard or cruise the throttle is a little more forgiving. The dealers leave it in sport because they are always selling the speed and power (which it has). Also there is a round intake manifold that doesn't stick out as much but isn't quit as classic looking.

Great bike! Will definitely get stage 2 kit although it’s damn quick even stock.

The reason it is a little jerky is because the ride mode is on sport, there are 3 different modes. I ride on the middle one (standard). Also the shocks are adjustable, must have been set too stiff. I don’t like that stage 2 intake cause it touches ur leg, there is a performance intake that is better.

Going to test drive a Scout Bobber this Friday 9/16, been riding HD for 30 years so who knows.
@bradlozano25713 жыл бұрын
I test rode the Bobber at 2 different open houses including its 2 brothers in the Chief line...It feels a bit smallish for me and very stiff ride...i felt every bump....I couldnt sit back far enough...But it has good power

Do you think it’ll be a good choice for a first bike ? And also were you in 1st gear most the time ? And I would be riding in South Carolina and Georgia.
@BackDraftBikes3 жыл бұрын
May be a little too much power for a first...I would try a scout or a Triumph Bonni

I see you tested the Street Bob and the Sport Guide, do you think this Dark horse bobber is better than them?. I have an iron HD and just bought this Bobber dark horse but i never tested the Street bob and sport guide... please rate the three bikes with a number, thank you!

That's what they say but it's just marketing. The bike was made and sold in 2021, but saying it's a 2022 gives you the psychological feeling that it's newer than it is.

Not sport bike muscle cruiser. It’s like a sister to my HD Sport Glide. Mine also came with a stage kit. The middle cam 114ci & blacked out trim. Mine also weighs 670 dry. Made 116 TQ at the wheel. Mine probably makes more HP as it made 116 to the wheel & pulls to 6k instead of 5k. When I pop off the no tools needed quick release bags n mini fairing to run as a naked bike it looks like that bike. Handling is excellent & best ever for a HD with the stiffer frame new suspension & inverted forks. Brakes are better than expected with the ABS.

Lol. I wanted to buy a Harley, rest rode a few but wanted something sporty, sooo…I thought 883, few days later I test rode Indian Scout bobber for that sport look…WOW…Indian it is!!! That Harley was so damn shaky and vibrations was horrible, not smooth at all. To it’s own though..
