Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to experienced riders who are comfortable managing a heavy, long-wheelbase machine at low speeds and in traffic.
PurposeBuilt primarily for long-distance highway touring with a commanding, stable ride rather than quick sporty handling.
Rider FitRiders should be reasonably tall and strong enough to manage the substantial 811 lb wet weight when stopping, parking, or maneuvering at a standstill.
CharacterA confident, laid-back cruiser-tourer personality that favors relaxed torque delivery, long-haul comfort, and classic V-twin presence over outright speed or nimbleness.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking lightweight agility, off-road capability, or a sharp cornering experience.

2013 Harley-Davidson Street Glide Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 663mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2013 Harley-Davidson Street Glide, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a slightly forward 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.
