Rider Profile

Best For	This is a demanding, exotic sport machine best suited to experienced riders who already understand high-performance superbikes.
Purpose	Built as a lightweight, race-bred Italian sportbike for aggressive cornering and track-focused riding rather than practical transport.
Rider Fit	Expect an aggressive, forward-leaning riding position with high footpegs and low bars that place significant weight on the wrists and demand good core strength.
Character	A raw, exclusive, boutique superbike character built around a Suzuki-derived engine wrapped in a hand-crafted Bimota chassis prized for razor-sharp handling.
Not Ideal For	Not suited for new riders, daily commuting, long-distance touring, or anyone seeking comfort or pillion-friendly accommodations.

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

Feet:

At 755mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 1996 Bimota SB6, with a cramped knee angle of around 65 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: estimated (wheelbase estimated from this category's typical bike, not this model's own spec). 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.
