Rider Profile

Best ForSuited to riders with at least a couple of years of experience who are comfortable managing a tall, heavy naked-styled sport tourer.
PurposeBuilt as a big-bore, do-it-all machine that blends relaxed sport-touring comfort with usable everyday performance from its torquey in-line four.
Rider FitThe 257 kg dry weight and 805 mm seat height demand a rider of reasonable height and strength, especially at low speed or when maneuvering it stationary.
CharacterA muscular, unpretentious all-rounder that favors smooth, confident torque delivery over razor-sharp aggression.
Not Ideal ForNot a good match for new riders or anyone seeking a lightweight, flickable bike for tight technical corners or off-road use.

2012 Suzuki Bandit 1250F ABS Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 785mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2012 Suzuki Bandit 1250F ABS, with a relaxed knee angle of around 120 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.
