Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to experienced riders who are comfortable with a rigid-frame custom chopper that demands deliberate, low-speed handling skills.
PurposeBuilt as a stylish, low-slung boulevard cruiser and show-worthy custom rather than a performance or utility machine.
Rider FitThe low 610mm seat height is approachable, but the stretched-out 39-degree rake and rigid frame require confident arm and core control at slow speeds and over rough pavement.
CharacterA raw, old-school chopper character with a big 96ci V-twin thump, springer front end, and hardtail simplicity that rewards riders who value looks and attitude over refinement.
Not Ideal ForNot for riders seeking long-distance comfort, passenger accommodation, cornering agility, or any off-road capability.

2009 Flyrite Choppers Scorcher Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 610mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2009 Flyrite Choppers Scorcher, with a cramped knee angle of around 65 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.
