Rider Profile

Best For	This is a boutique exotic best suited to experienced riders who understand aggressive geometry, a slipper clutch, and desmodromic V-twin power delivery.
Purpose	Built as a low-weight, razor-sharp canyon and track weapon rather than a general-purpose motorcycle.
Rider Fit	The committed sportbike riding position, tall seat, and firm suspension demand good flexibility and core strength, and will tire out less fit riders quickly.
Character	A rare, handcrafted Italian special with Ducati twin-cylinder torque, premium Ohlins and Brembo componentry, and a chassis tuned purely for precision cornering.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for new riders, commuters wanting comfort, or anyone planning long-distance touring or two-up passenger trips.

Your height

Inseam (optional)

Units

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

Feet:

At 810mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2012 Bimota DB5R 1100, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 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.
