Rider Profile

Best For	This bike suits an intermediate to experienced rider comfortable with a torquey big-bore four-cylinder and its substantial mass.
Purpose	It's built as a versatile all-rounder, equally happy carving up backroads, commuting, and eating up highway miles two-up.
Rider Fit	At 220 kg dry with a 790 mm seat height, it demands decent strength and confidence at low speeds and when maneuvering it off the stand.
Character	The naked-with-fairing sport-tourer character delivers strong midrange torque, a relaxed upright riding position, and a broad, forgiving spread of usable power.
Not Ideal For	It's not the right choice for riders wanting a lightweight, flickable machine or anyone planning serious off-road excursions.

Feet:

At 790mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2001 Suzuki GSF 1200 Bandit S, 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.
