Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits riders who already have some experience handling heavy, low-slung cruisers at low speeds and in traffic.
PurposeIt's built for relaxed boulevard cruising and stylish weekend rides rather than outright performance or long-distance touring duty.
Rider FitThe low seat height and stretched-out riding position favor taller riders with longer arms and legs, though the low center of gravity helps shorter riders manage the weight at a stop.
CharacterIt has a classic, torque-driven V-twin cruiser character with a low, muscular stance, deep exhaust note, and shaft-drive smoothness rather than sharp throttle response.
Not Ideal ForThis isn't the right bike for riders seeking sharp cornering agility, sport-bike acceleration, or any kind of off-road capability.

2018 Honda Stateline ABS Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 678mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2018 Honda Stateline ABS, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 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.
