Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a big, torque-heavy cruiser best suited to riders who already have experience handling substantial weight at low speeds.
PurposeBuilt for relaxed, muscular boulevard and open-road cruising rather than sport riding or commuting agility.
Rider FitAt over 300 kg with a low 700 mm seat height, it demands strength for slow maneuvers and parking despite being easy to reach the ground.
CharacterA big-twin power cruiser with strong low-end torque, a deep exhaust note, and a commanding, muscular riding position.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders wanting light, flickable handling, off-road capability, or a nimble city runabout.

2019 Triumph Thunderbird Storm Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 700mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2019 Triumph Thunderbird Storm, 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.
