Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits riders with at least some experience, since its custom-tuned suspension and classic geometry reward a confident but relaxed riding style.
PurposeBuilt as a bespoke retro cafe-racer-style rebuild, it's meant for stylish weekend rides and short cruises rather than outright performance or long-distance touring.
Rider FitThe low 760mm seat height and moderate weight of the twin-cylinder classic platform make it approachable for riders of varying builds and shorter inseams.
CharacterIt has a charismatic, vintage-inspired personality with a modern twist, blending Kawasaki W800 heritage with premium LSL styling and Ohlins-tuned rear shocks for a refined classic feel.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the bike for riders seeking high-speed thrills, off-road capability, or serious long-haul touring comfort.

2013 LSL W 800 Vintage Lindy Bob Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 760mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2013 LSL W 800 Vintage Lindy Bob, with a moderate knee angle of around 115 degrees and a forward-leaning 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.
