Rider Profile

Best ForDespite being labeled a super motard, this is actually a mid-size adventure-touring machine well suited to newer or returning riders thanks to its modest power and manageable handling.
PurposeBuilt as a versatile, lightly-powered adventure tourer for mixed on-road and light off-road use with modern electronics and navigation aids.
Rider FitThe 860mm seat height and 220kg dry weight require moderate rider confidence and inseam length, though the parallel-twin's manageable power keeps it approachable.
CharacterA practical, tech-friendly middleweight that favors comfort, range, and everyday usability over outright performance.
Not Ideal ForNot for riders seeking sharp sportbike acceleration or serious technical off-road capability, as its power and suspension travel are aimed at mixed-terrain touring rather than extremes.

2022 MV Agusta Lucky Explorer 5.5 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 860mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with tip-toe one foot on the 2022 MV Agusta Lucky Explorer 5.5, with a relaxed knee angle of around 135 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.
