Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits beginner to intermediate riders who want a light, forgiving small-displacement machine, and note the front tire size and 19-inch wheel suggest a dual-purpose or naked-adventure lean despite the 'Sport' category label.
PurposeIt's built as an entry-level street bike with mild off-road capability, good for commuting, learning, and light rough-road excursions rather than outright speed or highway cruising.
Rider FitThe 820 mm seat height and 141 kg dry weight make it manageable for most adult riders, though shorter riders may need to tiptoe slightly at stops.
CharacterExpect a simple, torquey low-end feel typical of a carbureted single, with modest top speed and an emphasis on rideability over aggression.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right bike for riders seeking high-speed touring, long highway hauls with a passenger, or track-day performance.

2020 Dafra NH 190 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 820mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2020 Dafra NH 190, 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.
