Does the Harley-Davidson Road Glide Special fit you?

The Harley-Davidson Road Glide Special (2021–2021) has a 658 mm seat height. As a rule of thumb, riders with an inseam around 66 cm — roughly 140 cm (4'7") tall — can plant both feet flat at a stop. Around 60 cm inseam you'll be on the balls of your feet, and shorter riders will tiptoe. Enter your own height and inseam in the simulator above to see exactly how you reach the ground on the Harley-Davidson Road Glide Special.

Riding position

As a bagger motorcycle, the Harley-Davidson Road Glide Special puts you in a relaxed, feet-forward stance. The simulator scores the exact knee, hip, and elbow angles for your body so you can see how relaxed or aggressive the reach to the bars and pegs will feel.

What is the Harley-Davidson Road Glide Special best for?

The Harley-Davidson Road Glide Special is best suited to long-haul highway cruising with luggage and a low, planted seat.

Braking & stopping distance

At 387 kg wet plus a rider, a hard stop from 100 km/h on dry tarmac takes roughly 39 m (about 1.00 g). Stopping distance is grip-limited, so it is set far more by tyres and road surface than by the bike or rider weight.

Fit figures are rules of thumb (flat-foot inseam ≈ seat height); the simulator gives your exact reach and joint angles. Braking is an estimate from wet weight and wheelbase on a dry road.
