Rider Profile

Best ForBest for experienced riders; its sharp supersport focus and strong midrange reward skill and punish complacency, though the 750 is friendlier than a liter bike.
PurposeA track-focused supersport that thrives on canyon roads and circuit days, blending 600-class agility with 1000-class-adjacent grunt.
Rider FitAggressive committed riding position with clip-ons, rearsets and a 810mm seat; sporty ergonomics load the wrists and fold the knees.
CharacterThe legendary middleweight that punches above its class: light, flickable and thrilling, with a screaming inline-four and razor-sharp handling.
Not Ideal ForNot for beginners, comfort-seekers, two-up touring or relaxed commuting; anyone wanting upright ergonomics or off-road ability should look elsewhere.

2016 Suzuki GSX-R750 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-R750, 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.
