Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits an experienced rider who is comfortable managing a heavy, powerful machine with strong low-end torque.
PurposeIt's built as a big-bore naked all-rounder, equally at home carving up open roads and covering long distances in comfort.
Rider FitAt 224 kg dry with a wide stance, it demands decent strength and confidence at low speed and in stop-and-go traffic.
CharacterThe in-line four delivers smooth, muscular power with a classic Honda character that rewards a relaxed, torque-driven riding style.
Not Ideal ForIt's not a good fit for new riders, off-road use, or anyone wanting a lightweight, flickable city commuter.

2002 Honda CB 1300 Super Four Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 790mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2002 Honda CB 1300 Super Four, with a relaxed knee angle of around 125 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.
