Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a machine for experienced riders who understand and want to explore the unique feel of hub-center steering.
PurposeBuilt for carving twisty roads and showcasing exotic Italian engineering rather than for practical everyday transport.
Rider FitThe low, aggressive naked-bike stance combined with minimal wind protection demands a fit rider comfortable with a committed, sporty posture.
CharacterAn exclusive, boutique hand-built Italian exotic that trades mainstream convenience for razor-sharp, feedback-rich handling and rarity.
Not Ideal ForNot for riders seeking a comfortable, low-maintenance daily commuter or a bike suited to long-distance touring or passengers.

2017 Bimota Tesi 3D Naked 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 2017 Bimota Tesi 3D Naked, 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.
