Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a boutique Italian exotic best suited to experienced riders who appreciate a raw, mechanical connection over rider aids and creature comforts.
PurposeBuilt as a low-weight, sharp-handling naked streetfighter for spirited road riding and canyon carving rather than outright top-speed bragging rights.
Rider FitThe light 170kg dry weight and aggressive geometry make it easy to flick around, though the firm suspension and minimal wind protection demand a fit, engaged rider.
CharacterA rare, hand-built Bimota with a torquey Ducati L-twin heart, delivering visceral feedback and exclusivity over mainstream refinement.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the bike for new riders, long-distance tourers, passengers seeking comfort, or anyone wanting off-road capability.

2013 Bimota DB6 Delirio E Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 800mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2013 Bimota DB6 Delirio E, with a relaxed knee angle of around 120 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.
