Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders who already have some experience handling heavy, low-slung motorcycles at parking-lot speeds.
PurposeBuilt for relaxed cruising and highway touring rather than outright speed or sport riding.
Rider FitThe low seat height and forward-set footpegs make it accessible, but the substantial weight demands confidence when maneuvering at a stop or on inclines.
CharacterA classic, torque-rich cruiser that rewards laid-back riding with strong low-end pull, deep exhaust character, and timeless retro styling.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking sharp cornering agility, off-road capability, or lightweight nimble handling.

2018 Harley-Davidson 115th Anniversary Heritage Classic 114 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 680mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2018 Harley-Davidson 115th Anniversary Heritage Classic 114, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 degrees and an upright 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.
