Rider Profile

Best For	This bike suits riders who already have experience handling heavy, low-slung custom cruisers with a rigid frame and long wheelbase.
Purpose	It is built primarily for laid-back boulevard cruising and making a visual statement rather than for speed or distance.
Rider Fit	The low 636mm seat height helps shorter riders reach the ground, but the 260kg dry weight demands confident low-speed balance and strength at a stop.
Character	It has the classic V-twin custom chopper character, with a rigid frame, long rake, and stripped-down single-seat styling that rewards style over performance.
Not Ideal For	This is not the right bike for riders wanting sporty cornering, off-road capability, or serious two-up touring comfort.

Units

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

Feet:

At 636mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2012 Road Hopper 9I, 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.
