Rider Profile

Best ForThis is an ideal machine for beginners or new riders building confidence on light, low-powered naked bikes.
PurposeDesigned primarily as an affordable, nimble commuter for urban streets and everyday errands rather than performance riding.
Rider FitIts low seat height and light overall weight make it very approachable for shorter or less physically strong riders.
CharacterA friendly, unintimidating small-displacement naked that favors easy manageability and efficiency over outright speed.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the bike for riders wanting highway touring comfort, high-speed thrills, or serious off-road capability.

2017 Suzuki Gixxer Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 780mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2017 Suzuki Gixxer, with a moderate knee angle of around 115 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.
