Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders with at least some prior motorcycling experience, as the big V-twin's weight and low-speed handling reward a confident, relaxed rider.
PurposeBuilt primarily for laid-back boulevard cruising and torque-driven straight-line riding rather than outright speed or cornering agility.
Rider FitThe low seat height and relaxed feet-forward stance suit riders of varying heights, though the substantial dry weight demands reasonable strength for maneuvering at a standstill.
CharacterA classic big-bore cruiser character defined by a deep-thumping V-twin, shaft-drive smoothness, and unhurried, torque-rich acceleration.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking sharp handling, high-speed touring comfort, or any off-road capability.

2004 Suzuki Intruder 1400 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 735mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2004 Suzuki Intruder 1400, with a cramped knee angle of around 80 degrees and an upright 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.
