Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to experienced riders who understand how to manage a very fast, high-torque hyper-sport machine.
PurposeBuilt primarily for high-speed sport riding, long fast highway stretches, and top-end performance rather than technical off-road use.
Rider FitThe long wheelbase and sportbike-oriented ergonomics demand a fairly committed, forward-leaning riding position and reasonable upper-body strength at low speeds.
CharacterA powerful, stable, and confidence-inspiring machine that rewards smooth inputs and delivers strong stability at speed thanks to its long wheelbase.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for beginners, off-road enthusiasts, or riders wanting a compact, flickable machine for tight urban maneuvering.

2017 Suzuki Hayabusa 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 2017 Suzuki Hayabusa, 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.
