Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a big, stretched-out custom chopper best suited to riders who already have experience handling long, heavy, low-slung cruisers with a wide front tire and aggressive rake.
PurposeBuilt purely as a statement bike for boulevard cruising and show-stopping style rather than outright speed or utility.
Rider FitThe very low seat height makes it easy to plant feet at a stop, but the long wheelbase, wide 23-inch front tire and heavy dry weight demand strong low-speed control and upper body strength during slow maneuvers and parking.
CharacterA laid-back, torque-driven X-Wedge V-twin cruiser that rewards relaxed throttle rolling and highway cruising over quick direction changes.
Not Ideal ForNot for riders wanting sharp cornering ability, off-road capability, or a nimble bike for tight city traffic and parking.

2009 Big Dog Wolf Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 622mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2009 Big Dog Wolf, 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.
