Rider Profile

Best For	Well suited to beginner and intermediate riders thanks to its manageable weight, low seat height, and predictable V-twin power delivery.
Purpose	A classic-styled cruiser built for relaxed street riding, boulevard cruising, and short trips rather than outright speed or long-distance touring.
Rider Fit	The low 747mm seat height and moderate 228kg weight make it accessible for shorter riders and easy to manage at low speeds and in stop-and-go traffic.
Character	Delivers a torquey, laid-back V-twin character with classic cruiser styling, a smooth 5-speed gearbox, and a relatively small fuel tank that limits range between fills.
Not Ideal For	Not the right choice for riders seeking sharp cornering performance, off-road capability, or serious long-haul touring comfort and range.

Inseam (optional)

Units

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

Feet:

At 747mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2010 Honda Shadow RS, 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.
