Rider Profile

Best ForIdeal for beginners and property owners; low power, light weight and easy manners make it forgiving and unintimidating for new or occasional riders.
PurposeA purpose-built farm and trail workhorse for chores, mustering and gentle off-road exploration on tracks, paddocks and unsealed roads.
Rider FitTall 827mm seat but very light 137kg with generous 237mm ground clearance and long-travel suspension; slim, upright and easy to manage at low speed.
CharacterA humble, dependable air-cooled single with electric and kick start. Utilitarian rather than exciting, tuned for reliability and low-speed usability.
Not Ideal ForNot for highway commuters, speed seekers, sport riders or anyone needing two-up touring; the modest 12hp engine feels strained at road speeds.

2023 Honda XR190CT Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 827mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2023 Honda XR190CT, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 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.
