Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a demanding supersport best suited to experienced riders who are comfortable with sharp throttle response and committed riding positions.
PurposeBuilt primarily for spirited canyon carving and track-day performance rather than relaxed everyday commuting.
Rider FitThe low, forward-leaning bars, high footpegs, and 810mm seat height put significant weight on the wrists and demand decent core and wrist strength over longer rides.
CharacterA razor-sharp, high-revving in-line four with a light 163kg dry weight gives it explosive acceleration and knife-edge cornering agility typical of the GSX-R750's racing pedigree.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking a plush, upright, long-distance tourer or a machine for gentle daily commuting in comfort.

2005 Suzuki GSX-R 750 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 2005 Suzuki GSX-R 750, 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.
