Rider Profile

Best ForWell suited to beginner and returning riders thanks to its low seat, automatic transmission, and unintimidating power delivery.
PurposeBuilt as a futuristic, low-maintenance urban cruiser that blends scooter-like ease of use with motorcycle styling and stability.
Rider FitThe very low 650mm seat height and automatic clutch make it extremely accessible for shorter riders or those wanting minimal physical effort.
CharacterA quirky, sci-fi styled machine that prioritizes relaxed, effortless riding and unique visual presence over outright performance.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders seeking sharp cornering ability, high-speed thrills, or any off-road capability.

2016 Honda NM4 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 650mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2016 Honda NM4, with a moderate knee angle of around 110 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.
