Rider Profile

Best ForThis is an entry-level 50cc scooter suited to complete beginners and riders needing only a basic moped-class license.
PurposeIt is built purely for short, low-speed urban errands and commuting rather than any performance or adventure riding.
Rider FitIts low seat height and light weight make it easy and unintimidating for smaller or less experienced riders to handle.
CharacterIt behaves as a simple, forgiving, low-power runabout with modest brakes and suspension suited to gentle city use.
Not Ideal ForIt is not suitable for highway travel, touring, carrying a passenger comfortably, or anyone seeking real acceleration or performance.

2013 Keeway RY6 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 775mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2013 Keeway RY6, with a moderate knee angle of around 95 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.
