Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to experienced riders who are comfortable managing a very large, heavy full-dress touring machine at low speeds and in parking maneuvers.
PurposeBuilt for effortless long-distance highway cruising with maximum weather protection and creature comforts rather than sporty riding.
Rider FitRiders should be reasonably strong and confident with a tall, heavy bike, though the low seat height and relaxed ergonomics help shorter riders manage it once rolling.
CharacterA big-hearted, luxury-oriented American V-twin cruiser-tourer that prioritizes plush comfort, stability, and long-haul relaxation over agility or outright speed.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking a lightweight, nimble bike for tight city streets, aggressive cornering, or any off-road use.

2018 Victory Vision Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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 2018 Victory Vision, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 degrees and a slightly forward 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.
