Rider Profile

Best For	Suitable for riders with a full motorcycle or scooter license comfortable with a large-frame automatic maxi-scooter, including newer riders transitioning up from smaller scooters.
Purpose	Designed as a maxi-scooter for comfortable daily commuting and light touring, blending car-like convenience with genuine highway capability.
Rider Fit	The 780mm seat height and 216kg weight require moderate confidence at low speed, but the automatic transmission and flat-footed ergonomics make it manageable for most body sizes.
Character	A practical, composed and comfort-oriented scooter that prioritizes smooth power delivery, stability and everyday usability over outright sportiness.
Not Ideal For	Not the right choice for riders seeking aggressive sport performance, off-road capability, or a lightweight, flickable machine for tight technical riding.

Units

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 2007 Gilera Nexus 500, with a moderate knee angle of around 110 degrees and a slightly forward 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.
