Rider Profile

Best For	This machine is best suited to experienced riders who are comfortable managing enormous low-end torque and a very long, heavy chassis at low speeds.
Purpose	It exists as a straight-line spectacle and boulevard showpiece, built around a genuine automotive V8 rather than for cornering or commuting practicality.
Rider Fit	Riders should be confident with a tall, wide, and very heavy machine, since maneuvering it at parking-lot speeds demands strength and deliberate control.
Character	It suits show-and-shine cruiser riders and V8 enthusiasts who want outrageous acceleration, deep torque, and a one-of-a-kind conversation-starting presence.
Not Ideal For	It is not for newer riders, tight urban commuting, or anyone seeking a nimble, lightweight bike for twisty backroads.

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

Feet:

At 635mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2013 Boss Hoss BHC-3 LS3 SS, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 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.
