Rider Profile

Best For	This is a boutique Italian sportbike best suited to experienced riders comfortable with a race-oriented riding position and razor-sharp handling.
Purpose	Built as a low-volume, handcrafted exercise in cornering precision, pairing a proven Ducati V-twin with Bimota's own exotic chassis and suspension.
Rider Fit	Expect an aggressive, wrist-loaded forward lean, high footpegs, and a firm seat, demanding good core strength and flexibility over any real distance.
Character	A rare, purist's canyon-carver that rewards a smooth, deliberate riding style with telepathic front-end feedback and light, flickable steering.
Not Ideal For	This is not the bike for new riders, commuters seeking comfort, passengers, or anyone wanting to venture off paved roads.

Units

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

Feet:

At 820mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2008 Bimota DB6 R, with a relaxed knee angle of around 125 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.
