Rider Profile

Best ForThis is best suited to an experienced rider comfortable with a long, heavy, low-slung custom chopper that demands deliberate, confident handling.
PurposeBuilt as a bold styling statement and boulevard cruiser, this machine prioritizes big-inch torque and visual presence over outright speed or agility.
Rider FitThe very low seat height and wide bars make mounting easy, but the extreme 40-degree rake and long wheelbase mean slow-speed maneuvering and U-turns require real upper-body effort and confidence.
CharacterIt rewards a rider who wants to be seen and heard, delivering strong low-end torque and a relaxed, chest-thumping V-twin rumble rather than sport-bike urgency.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right choice for a rider seeking nimble cornering, off-road capability, or a light, flickable machine for tight city streets.

2010 Big Bear Choppers Athena 114 X-Wedge EFI Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 508mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2010 Big Bear Choppers Athena 114 X-Wedge EFI, with a cramped knee angle of around 60 degrees and a slightly forward riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
