Rider Profile

Best For	A relaxed, low-stress machine that suits new and returning riders comfortable with a heavier cruiser layout.
Purpose	Built for laid-back cruising and boulevard riding rather than outright speed or sport performance.
Rider Fit	The low seat height and cruiser ergonomics make it approachable, though its 275 kg dry weight demands some care at low speed and when stopping.
Character	A classic, unhurried V-twin cruiser with soft power delivery and a traditional custom-bike feel.
Not Ideal For	Not suited to riders wanting sharp cornering agility, high-speed touring, or any off-road capability.

Units

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

Feet:

At 700mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2011 Suzuki Intruder Classic 400, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 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.
