Rider Profile

Best ForThis is an entry-level 50cc scooter suited to complete beginners or younger riders taking their first steps on two wheels.
PurposeIt's built purely for short, low-speed urban hops like commuting to school or work and running local errands.
Rider FitIts low seat height, light weight, and automatic transmission make it very easy and unintimidating for smaller or less experienced riders to handle.
CharacterThe Hurricane 50 is a humble, no-frills city runabout that prioritizes simplicity, affordability, and easy manoeuvrability over performance.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the bike for anyone wanting highway speeds, long-distance touring comfort, a passenger, or any kind of off-road capability.

2014 Keeway Hurricane 50 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 2014 Keeway Hurricane 50, with a cramped knee angle of around 85 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.
