Rider Profile

Best ForThis small-capacity cruiser suits beginner to novice riders who want cruiser styling without intimidating power.
PurposeIt is built for relaxed, low-speed cruising and casual boulevard riding rather than performance or long-distance touring.
Rider FitThe low 660mm seat height and modest 190.5kg dry weight make it easy to handle for riders of smaller stature or those new to bigger bikes.
CharacterIt has classic softail cruiser looks with a laid-back V-twin character, but with only 17hp it feels more like an entry-level cruiser than a true muscle cruiser.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the bike for riders seeking highway overtaking power, aggressive cornering performance, or serious two-up touring capability.

Character map is an editorial estimate based on this bike's specifications, not a lab-tested measurement.

2008 Rhino Hunter Softail STP-003 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 660mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2008 Rhino Hunter Softail STP-003, 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.
