Rider Profile

Best For	Best suited to experienced riders who are comfortable with a rigid-frame, springer-fork custom chopper that handles very differently from a modern motorcycle.
Purpose	This is a show-and-cruise machine built around styling and V-twin character rather than speed, distance, or agility.
Rider Fit	The low seat height is easy to reach but the long wheelbase, rigid rear end, and springer front make for a physically demanding, jarring ride on anything but smooth pavement.
Character	A bold, old-school Evo-style custom chopper that rewards riders who want attitude and presence over practicality.
Not Ideal For	Not suited for riders wanting long-distance touring comfort, off-road capability, or nimble around-town handling.

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

Feet:

At 680mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2011 Samurai Chopper Type 5, 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.
