Rider Profile

Best For	This bike suits beginner to intermediate riders thanks to its small single-cylinder engine, light weight, and approachable seat height, though note the FTR 230 is a Japan-market model and specs given may differ slightly from other regional variants.
Purpose	It's built as a lightweight urban all-rounder with street-tracker styling, best suited for commuting and casual city riding rather than performance or adventure use.
Rider Fit	The low dry weight of around 119 kg and 780mm seat height make it very manageable for shorter or less experienced riders to handle at a stop or in traffic.
Character	It has a nimble, flickable feel with quick steering geometry and a torquey low-revving single, giving it a fun, minimalist street-tracker personality rather than outright speed.
Not Ideal For	It's not a good fit for highway touring, two-up long rides, or anyone wanting strong acceleration or real off-road capability given its small engine, drum rear brake, and street-oriented tires.

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 2011 Honda FTR 230, with a moderate knee angle of around 115 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.
