FXDBI / Dyna Street Bob

The Street Bob was introduced for the 2006 model year as a stripped-down member of Harley-Davidson’s Dyna family, using the FXDB designation in the company’s own model listings and service literature. It was positioned as a minimalist factory custom: a blacked-out, bobber-inspired cruiser with fewer visual frills than many other Dyna variants, aimed at riders who wanted a simpler, tougher-looking Big Twin without moving into a full custom build. Harley-Davidson’s own model history places the Dyna family’s run from 1991 until its retirement in 2017, which also marks the end of this Dyna-era Street Bob. This nameplate should be distinguished from the later Softail-based Street Bob that followed after the Dyna line ended.
