Rider Profile

Best For	Best suited to riders with at least intermediate experience, particularly those comfortable managing a tall, weighty adventure bike both on pavement and loose surfaces.
Purpose	Built for long-distance overland adventure touring, blending genuine off-road capability with the ability to cover big miles on the road.
Rider Fit	Its 860mm seat height and 205kg dry weight demand a reasonably tall inseam and decent physical confidence when maneuvering at low speed or off-road.
Character	A rugged, torquey V-twin adventure icon that rewards a relaxed, go-anywhere riding style over outright speed or sharp handling.
Not Ideal For	Not the right choice for riders seeking sportbike acceleration, razor-sharp cornering agility, or a low, easy-to-handle city commuter.

Units

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

Feet:

At 870mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with tip-toe one foot on the 2000 Honda XRV 750 Africa Twin, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 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.
