Does the Suzuki GSX1100F Katana fit you?
The Suzuki GSX1100F Katana (1988–1993) has a 795 mm seat height. As a rule of thumb, riders with an inseam around 80 cm — roughly 170 cm (5'7") tall — can plant both feet flat at a stop. Around 74 cm inseam you'll be on the balls of your feet, and shorter riders will tiptoe. Enter your own height and inseam in the simulator above to see exactly how you reach the ground on the Suzuki GSX1100F Katana.
Riding position
As a sport-touring motorcycle, the Suzuki GSX1100F Katana puts you in a mild forward lean. The simulator scores the exact knee, hip, and elbow angles for your body so you can see how relaxed or aggressive the reach to the bars and pegs will feel.
What is the Suzuki GSX1100F Katana best for?
The Suzuki GSX1100F Katana is best suited to fast distance riding — sporty pace with enough comfort and luggage for long days.
Fit figures are rules of thumb (flat-foot inseam ≈ seat height); the simulator gives your exact reach and joint angles. Braking is an estimate from wet weight and wheelbase on a dry road.
