Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a purebred motocross weapon best suited to experienced off-road riders comfortable with aggressive power delivery and a tall, firm suspension setup.
PurposeBuilt specifically for closed-course motocross racing over jumps, whoops, and rough terrain rather than any form of road use.
Rider FitDemands a fit, strong rider given its tall 955mm seat height, minimal padding, and the physical effort needed to control it at race pace.
CharacterA light, razor-sharp, high-revving dirt machine that rewards aggressive inputs with explosive acceleration and pinpoint cornering agility.
Not Ideal ForNot suitable for commuting, touring, passengers, or anyone seeking a comfortable, road-legal, or low-maintenance ride.

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

Feet:

At 955mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with cannot reach comfortably on the 2007 Honda CRF 450 R, with a cramped knee angle of around 85 degrees and an upright 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.
