Harley-Davidson Street Bob Softail 107 Review with Vance & Hines Eliminator 300 slip-ons and Stage 1

We review the 2020 Harley Davidson Street Bob 107 which has V&H Eliminator 300 slip ons and a Stage 1 upgrade/tune.
We put the bike through it's paces on all roads and at all speeds to give you the info you need!
We look at the engine, gear change, brakes, suspension, seating position, styling, sound from the aftermarket exhaust slipons, value for money, fuel economy, rake and trail and more!
Just how good is this bargain priced softail?
We also have a quick look at the new Harley-Davidson Softail Standard (what a dumb name!).
Thanks to Sycamore Harley-Davidson in Uppingham for the loan! www.sycamorehd.co.uk

I've had a few Harleys over the years and last had a Street Bob maybe 8 years ago now, I like em. They are much better than people who have never ridden one think.

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

Yes we’d agree with that 👍🏼

[@johnDukemaster]

As an X Harley rider (for 20 years 13 years ago) I went in to the dealer for a look at the new Standard, the chromed Street Bob. The salesman said, looking at my streetfighter Honda parked outside the showroom "This bike can brake, cut corners and is quite fruity" Well, with those words at the back of my head I gave it some beans. And I must say, I was quite impressed! Silly handlebar and the bike I tried had that forward feet setup which I don't like. But the engine really revved up easily. I really liked it!

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

That’s pretty good! It’s certainly a fun bike to ride!

[@chrissmith7669]

I’m swapping the bars for a more typical pair. I’m not an ape and don’t plan on becoming one any time soon. I’ve seen them with the softail slim bars and it looks much better.

[@Rob-cv3vh]

These never caught my eye on the showroom floor but look superb and well proportioned with a rider onboard. Love the spruce colour too, I looked at a Fatboy in that colour but I think it goes better with the black elements on this one. Thanks again guys, bringing great videos to these dull damp days!

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

Glad you’re enjoying the videos! The fat boy is a great looking bike. The street Bob is for sure one of our favourites

[@shubhrobanerjee8133]

I ran a shovel for 18 years. Every ride was an event! Now been riding an Evo softtail for 13 years and have no urge to buy a new one. Does everything I want. Also, I don't want a go on the new ones because I'll probably want one and then my good lady will give me the stare of death! Women eh, mot the same as normal people :)

I like that one. Those pipes sound cool and the stage one kit (which I think the bike should come with) is a must straight away. Also, that new mic you're using is very different, but in a good way. With my terrible hearing, it makes hearing the kid much better. That place you guys film at is outta control.

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

Thanks Eric! Good points! Yes it’s a pretty place 👍🏼

[@billybob1511]

I can't understand why Harley don't offer from the factory mid or forward (or extended forward) controls on each and every Softail? In Australia it's about $1000 to change them on top of an already very expensive bike! To pay $1000 to change them on a Softail Standard is a big % of the new bike price. Seems crazy to me.

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

Ordered my Softail Standard back in June, for a delivery in March 2021 😱 (the joy of living in France) ... and unfortunately under A2 restrictions. At least I’ll have the massive torque going for me. Thanks also for the heads up regarding the kick stand. Other KZbinrs have had their bikes falling over as well. Definitely a problem HD needs to address. Perhaps an aftermarket version exists ?

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

That’s great! I brought this up with Harley Davidson UK and they just said tell your dealership. They couldn’t grasp that it’s a design fault and not an individual issue.

[@VVoltz]

Good review, thanks guys! The Street Bob is a cool looking bike. You know the one other difference from the Standard vs the Street Bob is the lack of a USB port

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

Thanks buddy. Yes true about the USB.

The best buy is the standard because it's a plain canvas but the Lowrider is the best buy if you don't want to change everything. I bought a brand new 2019 Lowrider with ABS for $13500 out the door. I bet not many people in the world did better than that. Biggs Harley Davidson in San Marcos CA is a great dealership. They saved me thousands of dollars and treated me with respect.

Very impressive bike for weekend trips & around town. V & H pipes should come standard, give the bike character cred. I'd add a set of Z bars and a second disc. A comfier seat with more padding, support wouldn't go astray. Sport Glide you tested previously is my favourite.

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

Thanks Andrew. Good points bro 👍🏼

[@jaytouvelle2359]

That is the best looking Street Bob I have seen. I like the Lowrider because it has a bigger tank and instruments on the tank. I also am a fan of high quality chrome when done in taste not like the 90's when people put chrome on the fender and everywhere that was overdone

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

Yes agreed. Thanks for your input buddy 👍🏼👍🏼

[@MrBurlybiker]

I got into the street glide and road glides! Never looked back! But I still have my street bob dyna 2011! Very fun to ride! Harley-Davidson is the king of baggers! Eventually when people buy these new softails they end up trading for a road glide or street glide very quickly!

I’ve had my Softail Street Bob for nigh on three years now & it’s probably the nicest & most fun bike I’ve ever owned. I’ve ridden many bikes in the last 40 years (dear Lord where has the time gone?) Japanese & German mostly, but none have put a smile on my face as consistently as the FXBB. My first HD was the Iron 883, which is for many the ‘gateway drug’ & it was a lovely bike, but my local dealer (what an apt description 😄) made me an offer I just couldn’t refuse. Heck, even the missus said I should go for it (& she normally balks when I start looking at a new car or another guitar). So, in conclusion, all I’d say is try one, you might like it. Chin chin 🥃.

Hello, lads! I don't know why, but I tend to pass over the Softails, and I shouldn't! Your work here is really putting them in a different light for me. Turns out this Street Bob is a super nice bike. That said, it's a bit knees-up for me. Even watching you, mate, I like how you look on the Heritage much better. That bike fits you very well. You chose wisely there. I prefer that one as well, truth be told. But for someone not as big as us, this is a great option. Anyway, thank you for these great videos. Cheers! And... Happy Holidays everyone.

[@pipes9878]

Wet water! 😱 What’s next supper slippy 🤣😂👍 Is a nice bike, I do like the look of the soft tail over the dyna, I’ve heard some yanks refer to that foot position as a “San Francisco style” 🤔 but definitely looks good in black, chrome is a right pain in Blighty 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤣 completely agree that restricting this down to 47bhp would be a waste of money and time. Plus with the higher chance of an accident within the first 2 years of riding I think I would cry my eyes out at the cost of one of these skipping sideways down the country lanes etc 883 iron perfectly good enough as a step in that direction.

Hi guys, another great video thankyou. I have just visited my local HD dealer and checked out the Street Bob 114ci. Nice bike, nice price, the lightest softail with plenty of grunt. Was going to buy a Fat Bob or Low Rider but looking at the new Street Bob in black with orange highlight tank it has changed my mind....and the lower price is a bonus. Trouble is, I also like the new 2021 Triumph Bonneville Speedmaster..... decisions, decisions!!

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

Yes we can’t wait to review the 114 Street Bob! It’s just a few months later over here in the UK before the press bikes come. We haven’t ridden the Speedmaster but knowing Triumph, the Speedmaster will be sharp handling (maybe too sharp for a cruiser). The 114 with slipons or a full pipe will be the King of the Jungle!

It sure is a lovely jacket, and yes we’ve learnt that the nylon is not a good combo with the mic. This problem is sorted in the next video, my rooms the one on the top right ;)

[@sergiuulici3908]

0:20 you look exactly like luthor, from the umbrella academy. nice superhero

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

👍🏼👍🏼 haven’t seen that 😁

[@rotax636nut5]

I want one, it looks the business

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

Yes it’s great! 👍🏼

[@scott7695]

Seat height is 680mm I'm 6'-1" hahaha...and people give Americans a hard time with units :-) Great review!

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

Lol yes the UK never fully went metric. We pick and choose

[@josheuvinck7911]

Any idea how many dB's the Eliminator 300 produce on the Street Bob? We have restrictions of 80 dB in the f*ing EU... BTW, really appreciate your vids!

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

Check out our fitting video kzbin.info/www/bejne/n2OmZX54j9KHbJI We show the decibels in it on a 114 and the 107 would be very similar

[@kobedhondt9495]

Is it reliable enough to serve as a commuter bike on top of the fun rides ?

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

Absolutely! 💯

[@DaveDoingDaveThings]

I REALLY want this bike but insurance is almost double that of the Iron 1200. How much difference is there between this and the iron 1200?

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

Wow really! The 1200 is not as torquey as this but it’s not bad. The Sportsters with the right pipes sound even louder if that’s what you want. Of you get a stage 1 on the sportster it’s pretty lively. The Street Bob is low and long, the Sportsters are a bit shorter and taller (except 48).

[@MusicNTempo]

I switched my iron 1200 for a Street Bob (both 2020 models) and my insurance went up by like $30 a month......So I’m not too sure why yours would double

[@DaveDoingDaveThings]

@@MusicNTempo after getting many more quotes online it seems prices are fluctuating wildly hour to hour. They seem to get a bit more sensible if the start date is beyond the lockdown so perhaps Covid has something to do with it. For example a Vulcan S was quoted as £400 one day and £958 a few hours later. I'm also a new rider so there's that

I do like the bike and it would be difficult for me to choose which bike I'd want 😉😄✌

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

Yes it’s pretty cool! 👍🏼👍🏼

[@gsrossco]

Great review, how comfortable would this be on a 400-500 mile ride?

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

Thanks buddy. Id say OK. Not perhaps as comfortable as a Touring bike but ok

[@gsrossco]

@@MrDarcy-OlMan Thanks never had a cruiser and recently took the street bob 114 for a spin. I was surprised how much I liked it, very tempted.

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

@@gsrossco Yes it’s a great bike!

[@juz6434]

Would you fellas recommend this bike, for a first bike? No road experience. Wanting for weekends, day trips, riding around with mates. Thanks guys

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

Yes I think it would be fine. Like any big bike, you’d have to take it easy for a while to get used to it, especially the torque, but it’s no harder to ride than any other big cc bike.

[@juz6434]

@@MrDarcy-OlMan yeah okay thanks. Yeah I’m not looking to hoon around, just want something to cruise with and do day trips. I’m a pretty cautious guy so I’ll definitely take it easy and learn. Thanks again

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

@@juz6434 no problem bro! It’s a very cool bike!

[@chrissmith7669]

I was surprised how easy it was to ride as a returning rider after 15 years of life getting in the way. Doesn’t feel like a big heavy bike at all. I’m thrilled with the 2020 107 I got on clearance, don’t think I’m missing anything not getting the new 114 CI.

Hi when will you be testing the street Bob 114

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

Hopefully in the not too distant future but no dates booked just yet. As soon as one appears somewhere, we'll get on it!

[@owaisahmad7841]

Would have been great if you added a few words on comparison between dyna and softail streetbobs. I own dyna steeetbob 2014 and now looking to change considering some softail.

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

Unfortunately we haven't ridden the Dyna bro!

[@brucemasson]

Mid controls moved to forward position?

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

No they are as standard

[@stephenpearce3332]

Thanks for a great review. I’m 6”5 tall would you get the street Bob or Fat Boy with forward controls?

[@MrDarcy-OlMan]

The Fat Boy is more roomy 👍🏼👍🏼

I put forwards on my FXBB I’m 6’1” and they’re great.

Thanks buddy. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@gauravbartola]

Did she come with Harley Security system?

[@Andy_FXBB]

Yes it does but no sound on the 2020, which is stupid if you ask me. I purchased a siren and fitted it myself. Now you get the chirp, and the loud hailing when it’s moved without the fob near it.
