Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a machine for experienced riders who understand desmodromic V-twins and low-mass, high-precision handling.
PurposeBuilt for spirited backroad carving and trackday-style cornering rather than raw top-speed bragging rights.
Rider FitIts light dry weight and compact, aggressive riding position reward an athletic rider comfortable with committed body positioning.
CharacterA boutique Italian exotic that prizes razor-sharp chassis feedback and artisanal engineering over everyday practicality.
Not Ideal ForIt is not suited to new riders, long-distance touring, passenger comfort, or anyone wanting low-maintenance daily transportation.

2007 Bimota DB5 Mille Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 790mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2007 Bimota DB5 Mille, 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.
