Rider Profile

Best For	Suits riders with at least some experience, since the strong V-twin power delivery and maxi-scooter size demand more confidence than a typical commuter scooter.
Purpose	Built for riders who want car-like automatic convenience combined with genuine highway-capable performance and long-distance comfort.
Rider Fit	The low 780mm seat height and twist-and-go transmission make it accessible, though its 249kg dry weight means low-speed maneuvering requires some strength and confidence.
Character	A distinctive maxi-scooter that blends a growling 90-degree V-twin engine with plush comfort and effortless automatic operation, favoring relaxed grand touring over aggressive sport riding.
Not Ideal For	Not suited to riders seeking off-road capability, razor-sharp cornering agility, or a lightweight bike for tight urban lane-splitting.

Inseam (optional)

Units

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 2018 Aprilia SRV 850, 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.
