Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to experienced riders comfortable managing a very heavy, low-revving machine at low speeds and in traffic.
PurposeBuilt for long-distance highway touring in maximum comfort rather than outright speed or sporty handling.
Rider FitIts substantial weight and low seat height make it manageable for shorter riders once moving, but demand strength and confidence at parking-lot speeds.
CharacterA classic, torque-rich cruiser with a relaxed V-twin thump, full touring bodywork, and an unhurried, laid-back road presence.
Not Ideal ForNot for riders seeking sharp cornering agility, off-road capability, or lightweight nimble handling.

1995 Harley-Davidson 1340 Electra Glide Ultra Classic Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 711mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 1995 Harley-Davidson 1340 Electra Glide Ultra Classic, with a cramped knee angle of around 80 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.
