Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits beginners or learner-licence riders who want a simple, unintimidating machine to build confidence on.
PurposeIt's designed as a cruiser-styled commuter for gentle urban riding rather than any kind of performance use.
Rider FitIts low seat height and modest weight make it easy for shorter or less experienced riders to manage at low speeds and when stopped.
CharacterThe character is laid-back and unhurried, with a classic cruiser look that trades outright performance for relaxed, approachable riding.
Not Ideal ForIt is not suited to riders wanting real motorway pace, long-distance touring comfort, or any off-road capability.

2020 AJS Highway Star 125 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 710mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2020 AJS Highway Star 125, with a moderate knee angle of around 110 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.
