With all the performance and capability of the latest generation the Chrome edition Bobber delivers the Bonneville twins incredible 106 Newton metres of torque, while the torque assist clutch reduces less lever effort for smoother operation, making the Bobber an easy and comfortable bike to ride.

 

Completing the Bobbers high specification set-up with a fat 16-inch front wheel and chunky 47mm Showa cartridge forks, which combine with the innovative ‘hidden’ monoshock RSU for solid handling with no compromise to comfort the ABS-equipped twin Brembo front brakes ensure powerful, controlled braking.
