Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a bike best suited to experienced riders comfortable managing a long, heavy, low-slung chopper with a steep 40-degree rake.
PurposeBuilt purely as a boulevard cruiser and style statement, it exists for show-worthy cruising rather than performance riding.
Rider FitThe extreme 40-degree rake and 250mm rear tyre make low-speed maneuvering and tight turns physically demanding despite the low 584mm seat height.
CharacterIt has a big, torquey V-twin rumble and a laid-back chopper stance that rewards relaxed, straight-line cruising over aggressive riding.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the bike for riders wanting agile cornering, off-road capability, or a light, flickable ride.

Character map is an editorial estimate based on this bike's specifications, not a lab-tested measurement.

2009 Big Bear Choppers Venom 100 Carb Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 584mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2009 Big Bear Choppers Venom 100 Carb, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 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.
