Rider Profile

Best ForThis scooter suits beginners and new riders who want simple, low-stress transportation without dealing with a manual gearbox.
PurposeIt's built primarily for short urban commutes and running errands around town, not for speed or distance.
Rider FitThe low 800mm seat height and lightweight 137kg wet weight make it easy to handle for riders of smaller stature or those less confident with heavier machines.
CharacterIt has a practical, no-nonsense commuter character with modest performance, automatic convenience, and easy maneuverability in traffic.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the machine for riders seeking highway touring capability, passenger comfort over distance, or any kind of off-road adventure.

2015 Benelli Macis 125 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 800mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2015 Benelli Macis 125, with a moderate knee angle of around 105 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.
