Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to experienced riders who are comfortable managing a very heavy, low-slung machine at parking-lot speeds and in traffic.
PurposeBuilt for long-distance highway touring in maximum comfort with full weather protection, storage, and infotainment rather than for outright speed or sporty handling.
Rider FitDespite the low seat height, the substantial weight demands good upper body strength and confidence for slow maneuvers, U-turns, and backing out of parking spaces.
CharacterA stately, torque-rich cruiser that rewards a relaxed riding style, delivering effortless mile-munching power and a commanding, luxurious presence on the road.
Not Ideal ForNot for riders seeking sharp cornering agility, off-road capability, or a lightweight bike for tight urban filtering.

2018 Harley-Davidson Ultra Limited Low Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 675mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2018 Harley-Davidson Ultra Limited Low, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 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.
