Rider Profile

Best ForThis 50cc scooter is ideal for beginners, learners, or anyone needing a low-stakes, easy-to-handle vehicle for basic urban transport.
PurposeIt's built for short, low-speed city commutes and errands rather than any kind of performance or long-distance riding.
Rider FitIts light weight, low seat height, and automatic transmission make it extremely accessible to riders of nearly any size or strength.
CharacterThe motard styling gives it a sporty, fun-looking presence around town, even though its performance is strictly modest moped-level.
Not Ideal ForIt's not suitable for anyone wanting highway speeds, touring range, passenger comfort, or any real off-road capability.

2016 Aprilia SR Motard 50 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 775mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2016 Aprilia SR Motard 50, with a moderate knee angle of around 100 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.
