Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders with at least some prior experience on a torquey V-twin, though the manageable power delivery makes it approachable for confident intermediates.
PurposeBuilt for covering long distances quickly and comfortably, blending sporty V-twin character with practical touring capability.
Rider FitA moderate seat height and reasonably upright ergonomics make it accessible to most body sizes, though the 209 kg dry weight demands a bit of muscle at low speeds and standstill.
CharacterDelivers the classic Ducati V-twin feel with strong midrange torque, a sporty but composed chassis, and enough refinement for all-day rides.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders seeking off-road capability, ultra-lightweight agility, or cutting-edge outright top-end speed.

2001 Ducati ST 2 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 825mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2001 Ducati ST 2, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 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.
