Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a friendly, forgiving bike well suited to new and lower-experience riders, as well as commuters wanting a manageable middleweight.
PurposeIt's built primarily as an accessible, low-cost naked bike for daily commuting and learning the ropes rather than outright performance.
Rider FitA modest 790mm seat height and manageable 203kg weight make it easy for riders of average or shorter stature to handle confidently.
CharacterThe parallel-twin engine and steel trellis frame give it a relaxed, torquey, approachable character rather than an aggressive sportbike feel.
Not Ideal ForIt's not the right choice for riders chasing high-speed thrills, serious highway touring comfort, or any kind of off-road adventure.

2014 Kawasaki ER-4N ABS Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 790mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2014 Kawasaki ER-4N ABS, with a relaxed knee angle of around 120 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.
