Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a bike best suited to experienced riders who are comfortable with a tall, light, sharp-handling machine that demands active input.
PurposeBuilt as an exotic Italian supermotard, the DBX is designed for aggressive canyon carving, twisty backroads, and thrilling mixed on/off-road riding rather than outright top-speed runs.
Rider FitThe tall 890mm seat height and supermoto-style upright stance favor taller or more athletic riders who can comfortably plant their feet and muscle the bike through quick direction changes.
CharacterIt has the soul of a boutique Italian special, pairing a torquey Ducati L-twin with premium Öhlins suspension and Brembo brakes for a raw, engaging, and exclusive riding experience.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right choice for new riders, pillion-focused touring, or anyone seeking plush comfort over long highway distances.

2013 Bimota Dbx Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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 2013 Bimota Dbx, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a slightly forward 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.
