PurposeBuilt as a sport-touring allrounder that blends relaxed sport handling with comfortable long-distance capability.
Rider FitThe moderate seat height, upright ergonomics, and manageable 257 kg weight make it accessible to riders of average build and fitness.
CharacterA smooth, refined, and dependable in-line four that favors mid-range torque and stability over outright aggression.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders seeking off-road capability or razor-sharp track-focused performance.

2013 Suzuki GSX1250FA Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 805mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2013 Suzuki GSX1250FA, 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.
