Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a friendly, low-intimidation cruiser well suited to beginners and riders stepping up from smaller commuter bikes.
PurposeIt's built for relaxed, low-speed cruising and around-town riding rather than outright performance or long-distance highway hauling.
Rider FitA low 709mm seat height and modest 176kg dry weight make it easy to handle for shorter or less physically strong riders.
CharacterThe 75-degree V-twin gives it a classic cruiser soundtrack and character despite its small 249cc displacement, prioritizing charm over speed.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right bike for riders seeking highway overtaking power, aggressive cornering performance, or off-road capability.

2013 Hyosung GV250 Aquila Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 709mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2013 Hyosung GV250 Aquila, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 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.
