Rider Profile

Best For	Suits beginner to intermediate riders who want a relaxed, low-stress cruiser experience rather than outright performance.
Purpose	Built for laid-back boulevard cruising and short-to-medium distance rides rather than speed or long-haul touring.
Rider Fit	The low 700mm seat height and manageable 269kg weight make it approachable for shorter or less experienced riders, though the cruiser stance limits ground clearance for aggressive maneuvers.
Character	A classic V-twin cruiser character with laid-back torque delivery, a shaft drive for low maintenance, and styling that favors cool, unhurried riding over aggression.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for riders seeking sharp cornering ability, off-road capability, or high-speed sport performance.

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 M800, 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.
