Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits an intermediate to experienced rider who appreciates a characterful, torquey single over outright horsepower.
PurposeIt's built as a lightweight, boutique cafe-racer-style naked bike for spirited backroad riding and urban exploring rather than long-distance or off-road use.
Rider FitThe low-ish wet weight of 152 kg combined with an adjustable seat height around 780-820 mm makes it manageable for riders of varying statures, though the single seat design limits touring comfort.
CharacterExpect a raw, mechanical feel from the big-bore single-cylinder Rotax engine, with punchy low-end torque and an engaging, old-school cafe racer personality.
Not Ideal ForThis isn't the right choice for riders seeking high-speed touring comfort, pillion capability, or serious off-road capability.

2013 CR&S Cr&s VUN Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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 2013 CR&S Cr&s VUN, with a relaxed knee angle of around 130 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.
