Rider Profile

Best ForSuited to riders comfortable with a low-slung, automatic-transmission cruiser rather than a full-size heavyweight Harley-style machine.
PurposeBuilt as a low-displacement, laid-back classic cruiser for relaxed boulevard riding rather than outright performance.
Rider FitThe low seat height and modest dry weight make it approachable for shorter or less physically strong riders.
CharacterDelivers a traditional V-twin cruiser feel with easygoing automatic belt-drive operation, emphasizing simplicity and cruising comfort over speed.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking sportbike agility, high-speed touring capability, or any kind of off-road use.

2006 Ridley Auto-Glide Classic Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 622mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2006 Ridley Auto-Glide Classic, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 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.
