Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits intermediate to experienced riders who can manage a light, torquey naked with sharp, immediate responses.
PurposeBuilt primarily for spirited road riding and twisty backroads where its low weight and aggressive geometry can shine.
Rider FitA tall 870mm seat height and lean, compact chassis favor taller or more physically confident riders over shorter ones.
CharacterA raw, punchy Austrian-built naked bike with a BMW-derived parallel twin that rewards an eager, engaged riding style.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for new riders seeking a relaxed first bike or anyone wanting a plush long-distance tourer.

2012 Husqvarna Nuda 900 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 870mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with tip-toe one foot on the 2012 Husqvarna Nuda 900, with a relaxed knee angle of around 140 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.
