Harley-Davidson Street Bob vs Suzuki V-Strom 1050 DE

The Harley-Davidson Street Bob (2025) and the Suzuki V-Strom 1050 DE (2025) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The Harley-Davidson Street Bob is a cruiser with 1,923 cc, 91.2 hp and 293 kg; the Suzuki V-Strom 1050 DE is a adventure bike with 1,037 cc, 105.9 hp and unlisted weight. Power-to-weight with the rider: 247.8 hp/ton versus 341.1 hp/ton. On this measure the Suzuki V-Strom 1050 DE is 38% ahead.

In the simulation the Harley-Davidson Street Bob covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 3.49 s and the Suzuki V-Strom 1050 DE in 3.12 s; the Suzuki V-Strom 1050 DE is quicker by 0.38 s. In the 100-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 49.1 m for the Harley-Davidson Street Bob (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS) and 41.4 m for the Suzuki V-Strom 1050 DE (with ABS). The Suzuki V-Strom 1050 DE stops 7.7 m shorter. Calculated top speed: 194 km/h (estimated from power and drag) versus 194 km/h (estimated from power and drag).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses class-average calibration (no accepted model-specific road test) for the Harley-Davidson Street Bob and model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for the Suzuki V-Strom 1050 DE. Missing manufacturer data (weight) is estimated by class regression, not measured. Open the interactive app (currently in Turkish) to watch the run side by side and change the load.
