Rider Profile

Best For	Best suited to experienced riders who are comfortable managing a very heavy, full-dress touring motorcycle at low speeds and in parking maneuvers.
Purpose	Built for long-haul, two-up interstate touring with maximum comfort, weather protection, and luggage capacity rather than sport performance.
Rider Fit	Its low seat height helps at stops, but the substantial dry weight and long wheelbase demand good upper-body strength and confidence when pushing it around or handling it off-camber.
Character	A relaxed, torque-rich cruiser-tourer character defined by big low-end pull, a commanding riding position, and a smooth, unhurried demeanor rather than outright speed.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for riders seeking a light, flickable bike for tight city streets or aggressive cornering, or anyone wanting an off-road capable machine.

Units

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

Feet:

At 673mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2018 Indian Roadmaster Classic, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 degrees and a slightly forward 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.
