Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to experienced riders who are comfortable managing a tall, heavy touring machine at low speeds and in traffic.
PurposeBuilt for covering long highway miles in relaxed comfort rather than for outright speed or sporty handling.
Rider FitIts substantial dry weight and low-end torque demand confident handling at parking-lot speeds, though the low seat height helps shorter riders plant their feet.
CharacterA classic American cruiser-tourer defined by its lazy V-twin torque, deep exhaust note, and unhurried, stable highway demeanor.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders seeking sharp cornering ability, off-road capability, or a lightweight, nimble ride.

2000 Harley-Davidson FLHT Electra Glide Standard Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 692mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2000 Harley-Davidson FLHT Electra Glide Standard, 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.
