Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to intermediate and experienced riders who can manage a torquey, quick-revving inline-four with sporty geometry.
PurposeA street-focused naked bike built for punchy acceleration, aggressive cornering, and engaging urban and backroad riding rather than long-distance cruising.
Rider FitA firm 825mm seat height and moderately aggressive rider triangle favor taller or average-height riders comfortable with a forward-leaning, sporty stance.
CharacterAggressive, muscular, and direct, delivering strong midrange torque and sharp handling from its inverted forks and radial brakes.
Not Ideal ForNot ideal for off-road use, new riders wanting a mellow first bike, or those seeking plush long-haul touring comfort.

2011 Kawasaki Z 750 R Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 825mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2011 Kawasaki Z 750 R, 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.
