Rider Profile

Best For	Ideal for beginners and commuters; twist-and-go automatic with a low 765mm seat and light weight make it approachable for new or returning riders.
Purpose	Built for urban commuting and short errands-efficient, easy-parking city transport at over 100mpg with USB and underseat practicality.
Rider Fit	Light 118kg, low 765mm seat, upright feet-forward scooter ergonomics with step-through frame; 16in front/14in rear wheels aid stability.
Character	A frugal, friendly, no-fuss Honda city scooter-refined liquid-cooled 125 single, automatic CVT, and easygoing manners over practical fun.
Not Ideal For	Not for highway travel, long-distance touring, spirited sport riding, off-road use, or anyone wanting real speed and power.

Units

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

Feet:

At 765mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2015 Honda SH Mode 125, with a moderate knee angle of around 95 degrees and a slightly forward 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.
