Rider Profile

Best For	A rider who has moved beyond a beginner scooter and wants a bigger, more substantial maxi-scooter without needing full motorcycle licensing skills or clutch experience.
Purpose	Built for effortless commuting and weekend touring, blending scooter convenience with genuine highway-capable performance.
Rider Fit	The 754mm seat height and 247kg weight mean shorter or less experienced riders will notice the heft at low speed and standstill.
Character	A refined, torquey twin-cylinder maxi-scooter that prioritizes smooth automatic operation, weather protection, and long-distance comfort over sportiness.
Not Ideal For	Not suited to riders seeking off-road capability, manual gear engagement, or a lightweight, flickable machine for tight canyon roads.

Units

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

Feet:

At 754mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2008 Honda Silver Wing, with a moderate knee angle of around 110 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.
