Rider Profile

Best For	Best suited to riders with prior experience on powerful machines, as the 142 hp inline-four delivers strong performance that rewards a confident, controlled hand.
Purpose	Designed as a sport tourer that blends fast, engaging in-line four power with a comfortable riding position for covering long distances quickly.
Rider Fit	At 235 kg with an 820 mm seat height, it's a substantial machine that demands reasonable rider strength and inseam for confident low-speed maneuvering.
Character	A muscular, high-revving sport tourer that feels equally at home carving twisty roads and eating up motorway miles with its smooth, torquey delivery.
Not Ideal For	Not the right choice for off-road adventures, novice riders, or anyone seeking a light, minimalist commuter bike.

Units

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 2013 Kawasaki Z1000 SX, 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.
