Rider Profile

Best ForNote: the provided specifications are for a Macbor Eight Mile 500 Scrambler, not the LiveWire One electric motorcycle, so this profile describes that mismatched gasoline scrambler instead; it suits riders with at least some prior experience handling a mid
PurposeBuilt as an all-round scrambler, it's meant for mixed city commuting, light green-laning, and weekend backroad rides rather than dedicated track or long-haul touring use.
Rider FitThe 820mm seat height and 195kg wet weight mean shorter or less experienced riders may find it a stretch at stops, though its narrow scrambler build keeps it manageable once moving.
CharacterIt has a versatile, easygoing scrambler personality, with modest twin-cylinder power, adjustable KYB suspension, and spoked wheels that favor confident, flexible handling over outright speed.
Not Ideal ForIt's not the right choice for riders wanting high-speed touring comfort, serious off-road capability, or track-focused performance.

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

Feet:

At 762mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2023 LiveWire One, 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.
