Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a novelty mini-chopper best suited to riders who just want a fun, low-stakes cruiser-styled toy rather than a capable motorcycle for building road skills.
PurposeBuilt purely for style and casual, low-speed fun as a miniature custom cruiser, not for serious transportation or performance riding.
Rider FitIts tiny frame, low seat height, and minimal weight make it easy to handle for riders of almost any size, though larger riders will look and feel oversized on it.
CharacterIt has the attitude of a full-size chopper shrunk down, with laid-back cruiser styling, a springer front end option, and a single-cylinder 50cc engine that keeps things slow and simple.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the bike for anyone needing real speed, highway capability, passenger carrying, or long-distance touring.

2013 Kikker 5150 Hardknock 50 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 635mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2013 Kikker 5150 Hardknock 50, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and an upright riding position.

Data quality: estimated (wheelbase estimated from this category's typical bike, not this model's own spec). 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.
