Harley-Davidson Tri Glide Ultra vs Harley-Davidson Tri Glide Ultra Classic ergonomics

Rider fit: reaching the ground

The Harley-Davidson Tri Glide Ultra has a 688 mm seat; the Harley-Davidson Tri Glide Ultra Classic sits at 699 mm — a 11 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 69 cm for the Harley-Davidson Tri Glide Ultra and 70 cm for the Harley-Davidson Tri Glide Ultra Classic.

That makes the Harley-Davidson Tri Glide Ultra the easier reach to the ground — the safer pick for shorter riders or anyone who wants both feet planted at a stop — while the Harley-Davidson Tri Glide Ultra Classic gives taller riders more legroom and a more open knee bend. Load your own height and inseam into the simulator to see exactly how each one fits you.
