Rider Profile

Best For	This is a supermoto built for experienced riders who are already comfortable with a tall, light, single-cylinder machine that demands active input.
Purpose	It exists purely to carve up tight tarmac circuits and technical mixed-surface courses with razor-sharp direction changes, not to cover distance or haul gear.
Rider Fit	The tall 898mm seat height, minimal weight at 109.3kg, and aggressive ergonomics reward a fit, confident rider who can move around the bike and manage a punchy single-cylinder power delivery.
Character	Expect an explosive, visceral character with instant throttle response, flickable handling, and a chassis that thrives on aggressive lean angles and hard braking into corners.
Not Ideal For	This bike is not for beginners, commuters, passengers, or anyone seeking comfort, wind protection, or long-distance touring capability.

Units

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

Feet:

At 855mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with tip-toe one foot on the 2005 KTM 450 SMR, with a relaxed knee angle of around 135 degrees and a forward-leaning 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.
