Rider Profile

Best ForThis lightweight, high-strung single-cylinder machine is best suited to confident, skilled riders comfortable with a flat-track-inspired, minimalist motorcycle rather than newcomers.
PurposeBuilt as a flat-track-styled naked bike, it favors flickable handling and sharp direction changes over outright top speed or long-distance comfort.
Rider FitIts low dry weight and narrow, upright stance make it easy to muscle around, though the firm suspension and minimal padding demand a fit rider for extended stints.
CharacterRaw, mechanical, and characterful, this bike leans into its single-cylinder punch and lightweight chassis to deliver an engaging, old-school riding experience.
Not Ideal ForIt is not a good fit for riders wanting a smooth, plush motorway tourer or a comfortable two-up long-distance companion.

2019 CCM Raf Benvolent Fund Spitfire Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 760mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2019 CCM Raf Benvolent Fund Spitfire, with a moderate knee angle of around 115 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.
