Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a friendly, low-intimidation machine well suited to beginners or those returning to riding after a long break.
PurposeIt's built as a small-displacement cruiser-styled runabout for relaxed, low-speed city and suburban riding rather than performance.
Rider FitThe low seat height and modest weight make it very approachable for shorter or less physically strong riders.
CharacterIt has a laid-back cruiser attitude with chrome-inspired styling but delivers only mild, unhurried performance to match its tiny engine.
Not Ideal ForIt is not the right choice for anyone wanting highway touring speed, off-road capability, or a passenger-friendly, long-distance ride.

2008 AJS Regal-Raptor 125 Silverhawk Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 686mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2008 AJS Regal-Raptor 125 Silverhawk, 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.
