Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to intermediate or experienced riders who can manage a punchy, torquey V-twin with a tall seat and sharp, immediate responses.
PurposeBuilt as a supermotard streetfighter, it thrives on twisty backroads and urban attack riding rather than long-distance cruising or off-road exploration.
Rider FitThe tall 870mm seat height and aggressive, compact riding position favor taller or more athletic riders comfortable with a forward-weighted stance.
CharacterA high-strung, lightweight V-twin hooligan bike that rewards aggressive throttle inputs and confident cornering with razor-sharp handling and strong midrange punch.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for new riders, those seeking plush all-day comfort, or anyone wanting a genuine off-road or long-haul touring machine.

2013 Aprilia Dorsoduro 750 Factory ABS Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 870mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with tip-toe one foot on the 2013 Aprilia Dorsoduro 750 Factory ABS, with a relaxed knee angle of around 140 degrees and a forward-leaning 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.
