Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to experienced riders who are comfortable managing a tall, heavy machine at low speeds and on twisty roads.
PurposeBuilt for effortless long-distance sport touring, blending V4 power delivery with shaft-drive reliability and full weather protection.
Rider FitA tall seat height and substantial 326 kg weight mean shorter or less physically strong riders may find slow-speed maneuvers and parking challenging.
CharacterA refined, confidence-inspiring grand tourer that prioritizes smooth, torquey performance and long-haul comfort over outright agility.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders seeking a lightweight, flickable machine for off-road trails or tight urban commuting.

2010 Honda ST 1300 ABS 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 2010 Honda ST 1300 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.
