Rider Profile

Best For	This bike suits an intermediate to experienced rider who appreciates a torquey, characterful V-twin over outright refinement.
Purpose	Built as a sport-touring adventure-styled machine, it blends long-legged capability with genuinely sporty handling for twisty roads.
Rider Fit	A tall seat height and moderately light dry weight make it manageable for riders of average to above-average height and confidence.
Character	The Buell delivers a raw, torque-driven personality with quirky engineering touches like the perimeter brake rotor and belt drive, giving it a distinctive feel unlike mainstream sport tourers.
Not Ideal For	This is not the right choice for a beginner seeking a light, forgiving first bike or for anyone wanting true off-road capability.

Units

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

Feet:

At 836mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2010 Buell XB12XT Ulysses, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 degrees and a forward-leaning 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.
