Rider Profile

Best ForThis big, heavy naked four suits riders who already have solid experience managing weight and torque at low speeds.
PurposeBuilt as a big-bore all-round naked bike, it blends relaxed everyday usability with strong straight-line performance from its inline-four engine.
Rider FitAt nearly 290 kg wet with a tall-ish seat height, it demands decent strength and confidence when maneuvering at a standstill or in tight spaces.
CharacterIt has the classic big-Honda-four character: smooth, torquey, understated power delivery paired with old-school naked-bike styling.
Not Ideal ForIt is not a good fit for new riders, off-road enthusiasts, or anyone wanting a light, flickable machine for tight technical roads.

2011 Honda CB1300 Super Four ABS Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 780mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2011 Honda CB1300 Super Four ABS, 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.
