Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a serious literbike best suited to experienced riders who already have strong throttle and braking discipline.
PurposeBuilt primarily for track days and aggressive canyon carving, with road use very much secondary.
Rider FitDemands a fit, committed rider comfortable with an aggressive forward-leaning stance and high footpegs for extended periods.
CharacterA razor-sharp, high-revving superbike that rewards precision and punishes complacency with explosive top-end power.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for new riders, commuters, or anyone wanting a relaxed upright seating position for long-distance touring.

2016 Suzuki GSX-R1000 ABS 30th Anniversary Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 810mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2016 Suzuki GSX-R1000 ABS 30th Anniversary, 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.
