Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits new and young riders, often learner-legal, who are building fundamental skills before moving to bigger machines.
PurposeIt's designed as a lightweight sport replica for learning aggressive riding position and cornering technique at low speeds and low risk.
Rider FitIts small dimensions and low weight make it very manageable for smaller or less physically strong riders.
CharacterIt has the sharp, aggressive styling and track-inspired ergonomics of a full-size superbike shrunk into a playful, high-revving 50cc package.
Not Ideal ForIt's not suitable for riders wanting real highway speed, long-distance comfort, or the ability to carry a passenger with ease.

2013 Aprilia RS4 50 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 820mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2013 Aprilia RS4 50, 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.
