Rider Profile

Best ForSuits riders with some scooter or automatic-transmission experience who want a step up in performance from a basic commuter scooter.
PurposeDesigned primarily for spirited urban and suburban commuting with occasional longer rides, blending scooter convenience with maxi-scooter performance.
Rider FitThe low 749 mm seat height and automatic CVT transmission make it accessible to riders of varying size and skill, requiring minimal physical effort to operate.
CharacterA sporty maxi-scooter that pairs a punchy single-cylinder DOHC engine and twin-disc brakes with the ease of automatic transmission for confident, engaging city riding.
Not Ideal ForNot suited for off-road use, long-distance highway touring, or riders seeking manual-transmission engagement or serious two-up touring comfort.

2008 Hyosung MS3-250 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 750mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2008 Hyosung MS3-250, with a moderate knee angle of around 105 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.
