Rider Profile

Best ForThis small-displacement single-cylinder machine suits beginners or new riders building confidence rather than seasoned sportbike veterans.
PurposeIt is styled as a sport model but its modest 125cc air-cooled engine and basic drum rear brake make it best suited to light commuting and casual riding rather than genuine performance use.
Rider FitThe low seat height and light dry weight make it easy to manage for shorter or less physically strong riders.
CharacterIt has the look of a sporty bike but the heart of a practical, easygoing runabout, favoring accessible fun over outright speed.
Not Ideal ForIt is not for experienced riders seeking real sport-touring performance, highway cruising comfort, or any serious off-road capability.

2008 Clipic Samurai 125 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 790mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2008 Clipic Samurai 125, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: estimated (wheelbase estimated from this category's typical bike, not this model's own spec). 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.
