Rider Profile

Best ForThis machine suits an experienced rider who is comfortable with a light, race-bred chassis and sharp throttle response from a punchy V-twin.
PurposeBuilt primarily for spirited canyon carving and track-day performance rather than utilitarian commuting or long-distance touring.
Rider FitThe low dry weight and adjustable but generally low-to-mid seat height make it manageable for riders of average build, though the aggressive riding position demands decent wrist and core strength.
CharacterIt has the soul of a boutique Italian-style sportbike: a torquey 90-degree V-twin, premium Ohlins and Brembo componentry, and exotic carbon and leather touches that reward a rider who appreciates craftsmanship as much as speed.
Not Ideal ForIt is not the right choice for new riders, pillion-focused journeys, off-road use, or anyone prioritizing plush comfort over cornering precision.

2012 Fischer MRX Race Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 749mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2012 Fischer MRX Race, with a cramped knee angle of around 65 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.
