Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits beginner to intermediate riders thanks to its automatic transmission and low seat height that ease the learning curve.
PurposeIt's built as an easygoing allrounder for casual cruising and daily errands rather than outright performance.
Rider FitThe low 622mm seat height and manageable 209kg dry weight make it accessible for riders of shorter stature or those wanting a less physically demanding ride.
CharacterThe V-twin engine and belt-driven automatic clutch give it a relaxed, low-maintenance, cruiser-like character focused on smooth, uncomplicated riding.
Not Ideal ForThis bike is not for riders seeking sharp cornering performance, high-speed thrills, or off-road capability.

2008 Ridley Auto-Glide Sport 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 2008 Ridley Auto-Glide Sport, with a cramped knee angle of around 55 degrees and a forward-leaning 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.
