Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a machine best suited to experienced riders who are already comfortable with aggressive geometry and high-performance power delivery.
PurposeBuilt primarily for track days and spirited canyon carving, it rewards riders chasing outright speed and precision cornering over practicality.
Rider FitExpect an aggressive, forward-leaning riding position with high footpegs and low clip-ons that place significant weight on the wrists and demand good core strength and flexibility.
CharacterThe CBR1000RR is a razor-sharp, race-bred superbike with a high-revving inline-four engine and taut chassis that thrives when pushed hard.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right bike for new riders, commuters seeking comfort, or anyone planning long-distance touring or off-road exploration.

2016 Honda CBR1000RR ABS Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 820mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2016 Honda CBR1000RR ABS, 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.
