Rider Profile

Best ForSuits riders who have at least some experience handling a heavy, torque-driven cruiser at low speeds.
PurposeBuilt for relaxed boulevard cruising and stylish short-to-medium rides rather than outright speed or long-distance touring.
Rider FitThe low seat height makes it accessible, but the substantial dry weight demands confident handling at parking-lot speeds.
CharacterA classic bobber-styled cruiser that delivers strong low-end torque, a thumping V-twin character, and laid-back styling over outright performance.
Not Ideal ForNot ideal for riders seeking sharp cornering ability, off-road capability, or a comfortable long-haul touring setup.

2014 Harley-Davidson Street Bob Dark Custom 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 2014 Harley-Davidson Street Bob Dark Custom, 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.
