Bristol Bobber 700

For starters, the Bristol Bobber 700 measures 2,245 mm in length, 880 mm in width, 1,040 mm in overall height, and 760 mm in seat height. This cruiser also has a wheelbase of 1,505 mm and a ground clearance of 130 mm.

Appearance-wise, the Bristol Bobber 700 looks brutish and classy at the same time. Its design features a blend of modern features and retro elements. This cruiser sports a prominent round LED headlight flanked by a pair of round signal lights, giving it an imposing, classic look. Its visible fork suspension and gloss black front fender also add more detail to its overall front design. 

Meanwhile, its side profile exudes a sporty, macho aura, highlighted by its twin exhaust pipes on each side, some silver accents, and a pair of spoked wheels (17-inch at the front, 16-inch at the rear) wrapped in chunky tyres. Similar to the front end, its rear also looks very classic, with its round LED tail light and another pair of round signal lights.

In terms of features, the Bobber 700 is equipped with a digital instrument panel, which is an upgrade over the Bobber 650’s traditional, analogue version. Its instrument panel displays the speedometer, gear indicator, RPM reader, and a clock, among others. This cruiser also has a USB Type-A charging port for your mobile phone.

Aside from that, it comes with a well-padded split-type seat, providing both the rider and passenger with great comfort and ergonomics, even on extended highway rides. For better ergonomics, the rider also gets adjustable brake levers, giving the rider more flexibility to achieve an optimal riding position at all times.

The Bristol Bobber 700 is equipped with a Telescopic Fork suspension at the front and Dual Shock Absorbers at the rear. Admittedly, maneuvering this modern-classic cruiser around the city requires some level of skill due to its pretty hefty weight. It is also not advisable to ride this through roads with large humps and deep potholes, considering its low ground clearance. 

That said, the Bobber 700 feels more at home on smooth, wide, open roads, like the expressways. Ultimately, this cruiser is capable of delivering comfortable long-distance highway rides for you and your passenger.

The Bristol Bobber 700 is powered by a 693cc twin-cylinder, 4-stroke, DOHC, liquid-cooled engine that produces 55 kW (74 hp) of maximum power and 68 Nm of maximum torque. This modern-classic cruiser comes mated to a 6-speed manual transmission gearbox.

This cruiser offers an exciting experience on the open road, with its engine producing a satisfying soundtrack as the revs climb. While vibrations become noticeable at higher speeds, they are not enough to ruin the whole riding experience. Additionally, it has enough power to effectively perform quick overtakes on free-flowing expressways. And, on top of that, it delivers respectable fuel economy for its displacement.

The Bristol Bobber 700 comes with front and rear hydraulic disc brakes, supported by a dual-channel anti-lock braking system. In terms of safety, this modern-classic cruiser is also equipped with an engine check warning, a pass switch, and side reflectors.

The Bristol Bobber 700 is a stylish and capable cruiser that combines strong performance, comfortable ergonomics, and impressive road presence. It’s an appealing choice for riders who want a distinctive big-bike experience with plenty of character.
