Rider Profile

Best For	This is a heavy, powerful cruiser best suited to riders who already have solid low-speed handling skills and experience managing substantial machine weight.
Purpose	Built as a boulevard cruiser with a boxer-six engine, it prioritizes relaxed, torque-rich cruising and long-distance comfort over outright speed or cornering agility.
Rider Fit	At over 300 kg dry weight with a low seat height, it is manageable at a stop for most riders but demands upper body and core strength for maneuvering at slow speeds or parking.
Character	It has a smooth, distinctive flat-six exhaust note and a stately, unhurried personality that rewards relaxed, confident throttle inputs rather than aggressive riding.
Not Ideal For	This is not the right bike for riders seeking sharp cornering response, off-road capability, or a lightweight, flickable ride.

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

Feet:

At 734mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2002 Honda F 6 C Valkyrie / GL 1500 CD, with a cramped knee angle of around 80 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.
