Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a boutique Italian exotic best suited to experienced riders who understand its unconventional hub-center steering front end and light, race-derived chassis.
PurposeBuilt primarily as a sharp-handling, low-volume sportbike for spirited road riding and trackday-style cornering rather than outright top speed.
Rider FitThe low, compact riding position and light dry weight favor riders comfortable with a committed, sporty crouch rather than an upright, relaxed posture.
CharacterA raw, engineering-focused machine that rewards precision and feel, delivering distinctive Ducati V-twin character through an exotic aluminum omega frame and Tesi hub-steering system.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for new riders, pillion-focused riders, or anyone wanting long-distance comfort, wind protection, or fuel range.

2006 Bimota Tesi 2D Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 830mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2006 Bimota Tesi 2D, 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.
