Rider Profile

Best For	This exotic, turbocharged V6 naked bike demands an experienced rider comfortable with strong, boosted power delivery and a heavy, unconventional machine.
Purpose	Built as a rolling showcase of exotic engineering, it excels at delivering dramatic acceleration and a unique soundtrack for spirited road riding rather than any single practical role.
Rider Fit	At over 260 kg wet with a moderate seat height, it requires a physically confident rider who can manage its substantial mass at low speeds and in tight maneuvers.
Character	It suits collectors and enthusiasts who want a rare, boutique piece of motorcycling engineering that turns heads and prioritizes exclusivity and character over practicality.
Not Ideal For	It is not suited to new riders, off-road use, or anyone seeking a light, nimble, or low-maintenance everyday motorcycle.

Units

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

Feet:

At 800mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2013 Horex VR6 Roadster, 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.
