Rider Profile

Best For	Suited to riders who already have some experience with heavy cruisers, given the low seat but substantial dry weight of over 300kg.
Purpose	Built for relaxed boulevard cruising and stripped-down custom style rather than outright speed or long-distance touring comfort.
Rider Fit	The low 26.5 inch seat height makes it approachable for shorter riders, but the bike's mass demands confident low-speed handling and strength at a standstill.
Character	A blacked-out, minimalist V-twin cruiser with a big-inch American engine feel, favoring torque-driven cruising over aggressive cornering ability.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for riders seeking sharp handling, off-road capability, or high-speed performance.

Units

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

Feet:

At 673mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2008 Victory Kingpin 8-Ball, 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.
