Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a hardcore competition motocrosser best suited to experienced or expert off-road riders, not beginners.
PurposeBuilt purely for motocross racing, with big-bore single-cylinder power aimed at explosive acceleration out of corners and over jumps.
Rider FitThe tall 930mm seat height, minimal suspension give, and firm race ergonomics demand good rider fitness, strength, and off-road skill.
CharacterA raw, high-torque four-stroke single with an aggressive, punchy delivery typical of open-class motocross machines of its era.
Not Ideal ForNot suitable for commuting, touring, passengers, or riders wanting a comfortable, low-maintenance street-friendly bike.

2002 Husaberg FC 550/4 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 930mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with cannot reach comfortably on the 2002 Husaberg FC 550/4, with a cramped knee angle of around 80 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.
