Best for
Built for muscular boulevard cruising and straight-line torque thrills rather than corner carving or long-distance touring.
Built for
It has a brawny, aggressive personality defined by big V-twin torque, a wide rear tire stance, and a stripped-down muscle cruiser attitude.
Not ideal for
This is not the right bike for riders seeking agile cornering, off-road capability, or a lightweight, flickable ride.

Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.

Will it fit you?

Worked out in your browser - nothing is sent to us
At 673mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2011 Victory Hammer S, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 degrees and an upright riding position.

Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated. This is an approximation from category-typical geometry, not a measurement of this bike or of you - sit on one before you buy.
