Rider Profile

Best ForWell suited to beginner and novice riders thanks to its modest power, low seat height, and forgiving low-speed manners.
PurposeA classic-styled small-displacement cruiser built for relaxed, low-key riding rather than outright performance.
Rider FitIts low 740mm seat height and light 172kg dry weight make it easy to handle for shorter or less physically strong riders.
CharacterA laid-back, V-twin-powered cruiser that prioritizes style, sound, and easy ergonomics over speed or sharp handling.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders wanting highway-devouring touring capability, off-road ability, or spirited high-speed performance.

2023 Hyosung GV 300 S Aquila Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 740mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2023 Hyosung GV 300 S Aquila, 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.
