Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a purebred big-bore motocross machine best suited to experienced off-road riders comfortable with a tall, powerful, aggressive single-cylinder bike.
PurposeBuilt purely for motocross and hard off-road riding, with a light chassis and long-travel suspension optimized for jumps, ruts, and aggressive terrain rather than any road use.
Rider FitThe tall 930mm seat height, high ground clearance, and firm suspension demand strong rider fitness, good leg length, and confidence standing on the pegs.
CharacterExpect a punchy, torquey big-bore single with sharp, direct handling and a lightweight, flickable feel typical of open-class motocrossers.
Not Ideal ForThis is not suited to commuting, touring, passengers, or casual road riding since it lacks lights, mirrors, comfort, and any touring provisions as a track/off-road-only machine.

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 550/6, 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.
