Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits an experienced rider comfortable managing a heavy, powerful machine at low speeds and on long hauls.
PurposeIt's built for relaxed, high-mileage touring with strong big-inline-four power in reserve for effortless highway overtaking.
Rider FitAt over 280 kg wet with a tall seat, it demands decent height, strength, and confidence handling substantial weight when stationary or maneuvering slowly.
CharacterA classic, understated Japanese sport-tourer that favors smooth, torquey delivery and stability over sharp aggression.
Not Ideal ForIt's not the right choice for new riders, off-road use, or anyone wanting a light, flickable machine for tight city streets.

Rider Fit Visualizer

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

Feet:

At 780mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2012 Honda CB1300 Super Touring, 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.
