Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits beginners and new riders who want a light, easy-to-manage commuter rather than a performance machine.
PurposeIt's built as an everyday commuter for city streets and short trips, not for speed or long-distance touring.
Rider FitThe low seat height and light dry weight make it accessible and manageable for riders of smaller stature or lower confidence.
CharacterA practical, unassuming single-cylinder runabout that prioritizes fuel economy and ease of use over excitement.
Not Ideal ForIt's not suited for highway touring, two-up long journeys, or riders seeking real performance and power.

2019 Honda CB Unicorn 160 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 2019 Honda CB Unicorn 160, 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.
