Rider Profile

Best ForSuitable for riders of any experience level, including those newer to two wheels, thanks to its automatic transmission and approachable nature.
PurposeDesigned primarily as an urban and suburban commuter scooter with enough capability for occasional longer rides.
Rider FitThe 780mm seat height and 199kg dry weight make it manageable for most adult riders, though its bulk is noticeable at low-speed maneuvers like parking.
CharacterA practical, maxi-scooter with a torquey single-cylinder engine, automatic clutch, and comfort-oriented ergonomics rather than sporty pretensions.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking sharp handling, high-speed thrills, or any off-road capability.

2008 Aprilia Atlantic 400 Sprint Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 780mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2008 Aprilia Atlantic 400 Sprint, with a moderate knee angle of around 110 degrees and a slightly forward 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.
