Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders who already have some experience handling a heavy, torque-driven cruiser at low speeds.
PurposeBuilt for laid-back boulevard cruising and show-worthy styling rather than outright speed or distance-eating touring.
Rider FitThe low seat height and wide, raked-out front end make it easy to plant feet at a stop, but the stretched stance and wide bars demand some arm and shoulder reach.
CharacterA classic factory custom with a big air-cooled V-twin rumble, chopper-inspired styling, and relaxed, torque-heavy delivery over high-rev performance.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders seeking sharp cornering agility, off-road capability, or long-haul touring comfort.

2011 Harley-Davidson FXDWG Dyna Wide Glide Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 648mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2011 Harley-Davidson FXDWG Dyna Wide Glide, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 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.
