Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders with some two-stroke and small-bike experience who enjoy a high-revving, peaky powerband rather than outright speed.
PurposeBuilt for playful supermoto antics, tight urban shortcuts, and flicking through corners rather than covering long distances.
Rider FitIts featherweight 96 kg dry weight and low 865 mm seat height make it extremely manageable for smaller or lighter riders.
CharacterA sharp, buzzy little two-stroke supermoto that rewards revving hard and throwing it into corners with abandon.
Not Ideal ForNot suitable for riders wanting sustained highway speeds, long-distance comfort, or carrying a passenger in any real comfort.

2008 Derbi Senda DRD Racing 50 SM Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 875mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with tip-toe one foot on the 2008 Derbi Senda DRD Racing 50 SM, with a relaxed knee angle of around 135 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.
