Rider Profile

Best For	Well suited to newer riders or those returning to biking, thanks to its modest power and manageable low seat height.
Purpose	Built as a low-slung custom cruiser for relaxed street riding and boulevard cruising rather than outright performance.
Rider Fit	The low 645mm seat height and moderate 217kg dry weight make it accessible for shorter or less physically strong riders.
Character	A laid-back, style-focused V-twin cruiser that rewards easygoing throttle use and casual cornering over aggressive riding.
Not Ideal For	Not a good match for riders seeking high-speed touring, sport-bike agility, or any serious off-road capability.

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

Feet:

At 645mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2002 Honda Shadow Slasher 400, 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.
