Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits beginners and new riders who want a light, unintimidating machine to build confidence on.
PurposeIt is built primarily for commuting and everyday urban riding rather than performance or long-distance travel.
Rider FitIts low seat height and light weight make it accessible to riders of smaller stature or those wanting a manageable, easy-to-handle bike.
CharacterA friendly, approachable naked bike with modest performance, styled to look more aggressive than its small single-cylinder engine actually delivers.
Not Ideal ForThis is not a good fit for experienced riders seeking highway speed, sustained touring comfort, or any off-road capability.

2019 Benelli BN 125 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 770mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2019 Benelli BN 125, with a moderate knee angle of around 115 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.
