Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to experienced riders who are comfortable managing a heavy, long-wheelbase cruiser at low speeds and in tight maneuvers.
PurposeBuilt for relaxed, torque-rich boulevard and highway cruising with big V-twin character rather than outright speed or sharp handling.
Rider FitIts low seat height is approachable, but the substantial 360 kg curb weight demands good upper body strength and confidence when pushing it around at a stop or in reverse.
CharacterA laid-back, big-inch American-style cruiser that rewards smooth, deliberate riding with strong low-end torque and a commanding presence.
Not Ideal ForNot for riders seeking nimble cornering, off-road capability, or a lightweight bike for quick city darting.

2014 Yamaha XV1900A Casual Full Dress Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 705mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2014 Yamaha XV1900A Casual Full Dress, with a cramped knee angle of around 80 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.
