Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits newer riders or those stepping up from a learner-legal small displacement machine who want sporty styling without intimidating power.
PurposeIt's best suited to commuting and light sporty riding around town and twisty backroads rather than serious performance or long-distance work.
Rider FitThe low-ish seat height and modest 165 kg dry weight make it manageable for shorter or less experienced riders to handle at low speed and when stopped.
CharacterIt has a lightweight, single-cylinder sportbike character that rewards revving and flicking through corners rather than outright straight-line punch.
Not Ideal ForIt's not a good choice for riders wanting highway-eating touring comfort, serious pillion duty, or any kind of off-road capability.

2016 Daelim VJF 250 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 2016 Daelim VJF 250, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 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.
