Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders who already have experience with heavy, high-torque cruisers, as the big V-twin power delivery and 298kg dry weight demand confident low-speed handling.
PurposeBuilt as a muscular power-cruiser, this bike is about big-torque straight-line thrills and street presence rather than outright top speed or track ability.
Rider FitThe low 671mm seat height helps shorter riders reach the ground, but the substantial weight and wide 250mm rear tyre mean maneuvering at parking speeds takes some physical effort.
CharacterIt's a bold, chest-thumping American cruiser that rewards riders who enjoy raw torque, deep exhaust notes, and a commanding riding position over nimble cornering.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking agile cornering, off-road capability, or a lightweight, flickable ride through tight city traffic.

2006 Victory Victory Hammer Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 671mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2006 Victory Victory Hammer, 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.
