Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits complete beginners and new riders who want a simple, unintimidating machine to build confidence on.
PurposeIt's designed as an economical commuter and learner bike for short trips and everyday urban transport rather than performance riding.
Rider FitIts low seat height and light weight make it very manageable for shorter or less physically strong riders.
CharacterIt has a friendly, low-stress character defined by light handling, modest power, and fuss-free reliability rather than excitement.
Not Ideal ForIt's not suited to riders wanting highway speed, long-distance touring comfort, or any serious off-road capability.

2014 Honda CBF125 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 792mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2014 Honda CBF125, 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.
