Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a machine best suited to confident, experienced riders comfortable with a rigid-frame custom that offers no rear suspension and demands deliberate, physical riding.
PurposeBuilt as a show-quality bobber for style, cruising short distances, and turning heads rather than covering ground quickly or efficiently.
Rider FitThe rigid rear end, low solo seat, and springer front suspension mean every bump is felt directly, so a strong back and tolerance for a harsh, rough ride are essential.
CharacterA raw, minimalist Harley-based custom with old-school hot-rod attitude, prioritizing lean visual lines and stripped-down mechanicals over modern comfort or performance.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the bike for riders wanting long-distance touring comfort, a passenger, or agile cornering performance.

2011 Covingtons Bobber 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 2011 Covingtons Bobber, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and an upright riding position.

Data quality: estimated (wheelbase estimated from this category's typical bike, not this model's own spec). 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.
