Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits an experienced rider comfortable with a long, heavy, low-slung custom cruiser that demands deliberate, unhurried inputs.
PurposeBuilt primarily as a stylish boulevard cruiser and custom show bike rather than a performance or utility machine.
Rider FitThe low 635 mm seat height makes it accessible for shorter riders, but the substantial dry weight of over 280 kg means slow-speed maneuvering and picking it up from a stop require some strength and confidence.
CharacterIt has the raw, rumbling character of a big-inch S&S-carbureted V-twin wrapped in an aggressive, wide-tired custom chassis with a stretched 39-degree rake.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right bike for riders seeking sharp cornering agility, off-road capability, or a lightweight, nimble commuter.

2010 Saxon Hotrod Sceptre Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 635mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2010 Saxon Hotrod Sceptre, 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.
