Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders with some experience handling heavy cruisers, given its substantial weight and long wheelbase.
PurposeBuilt for relaxed highway cruising and long-distance touring rather than sport riding or commuting agility.
Rider FitIts low seat height suits shorter riders, but the near 363 kg mass demands strength and confidence at low speeds and when maneuvering.
CharacterA big, torquey V-twin cruiser that delivers smooth, effortless power and a commanding, stable presence on the open road.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking nimble cornering, off-road capability, or a lightweight city runabout.

2010 Honda VTX1800T Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 696mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2010 Honda VTX1800T, 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.
