Rider Profile

Best For	This is a boutique exotic sportbike best suited to experienced riders who already understand aggressive, race-bred handling.
Purpose	Built as a light, high-performance canyon-carving and track-day machine derived from a supersport donor engine, not a commuter or all-rounder.
Rider Fit	The low, forward-leaning riding position and tall, firm seat demand a fit, flexible rider comfortable with wrist and back load.
Character	A rare, hand-built Italian special with razor-sharp steering and a high-revving four-cylinder heart, rewarding precise, committed inputs.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for new riders, tall touring distances, passengers, or anyone wanting plush comfort and low-maintenance ownership.

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

Feet:

At 810mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 1998 Bimota YB9 SRI, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

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