Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits intermediate to experienced riders who are comfortable with a torquey V-twin and a cafe-racer riding position.
PurposeBuilt as a stylish, boutique naked cafe racer for spirited road riding rather than outright track dominance or long-distance touring.
Rider FitThe 810mm seat height and forward-leaning cafe racer stance demand decent leg length and some wrist and core commitment on longer rides.
CharacterA characterful, exclusive V-twin with strong midrange torque, sharp steering geometry, and premium cycle parts that reward confident, engaged riding.
Not Ideal ForNot ideal for riders seeking plush comfort, pillion-friendly touring capability, or any off-road versatility.

2008 Voxan V1000 Cafe Racer Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 810mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2008 Voxan V1000 Cafe Racer, with a relaxed knee angle of around 125 degrees and a forward-leaning 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.
