Rider Profile

Best For	This bike suits experienced riders who are comfortable with a powerful, high-revving V-twin and sharp handling characteristics.
Purpose	Built as a boutique sport tourer, it's designed for spirited road riding and fast covering of distances rather than pure commuting or off-road use.
Rider Fit	The 850mm seat height and committed but slightly relaxed riding position demand reasonable fitness and leg reach, though it's more accommodating than a full sportbike.
Character	It rewards a rider who appreciates exclusive Italian engineering, precise chassis feedback, and a raw, mechanical connection to the machine.
Not Ideal For	It's not a good fit for beginners, those wanting plush long-haul comfort, or anyone needing off-road capability.

Feet:

At 850mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with tip-toe one foot on the 2013 Bimota DB12 B Tourist, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 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).
