Rider Profile

Best For	Best suited to riders who already have experience handling heavy, low-slung custom cruisers with big V-twin torque.
Purpose	Built for laid-back boulevard cruising and show-stopping style rather than outright speed or long-distance touring.
Rider Fit	The low seat height is welcoming to shorter riders, but the substantial dry weight and long wheelbase demand solid strength and confidence at low speeds and when maneuvering.
Character	A bold, chopper-inspired custom cruiser that prioritizes attitude, torque-driven presence, and a raked-out stance over agility or refinement.
Not Ideal For	Not a good choice for riders wanting sharp cornering ability, off-road capability, or a nimble, lightweight ride.

Inseam (optional)

Units

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

Feet:

At 616mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2008 Big Dog Mutt, 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.
