Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a beginner-friendly machine, well suited to new riders or those just off a learner license.
PurposeIt's built as an entry-level sport-styled commuter for short hops and learning the basics of riding rather than outright performance.
Rider FitIts low seat height and light dry weight make it easy to manage for riders of smaller stature or limited strength.
CharacterIt has a friendly, approachable, small-displacement single-cylinder character that rewards smooth, patient riding rather than aggressive throttle use.
Not Ideal ForIt's not for experienced riders seeking real highway speed, long-distance touring comfort, or two-up passenger performance.

2013 Keeway RK III 125 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 800mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2013 Keeway RK III 125, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 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.
