Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders with at least some experience on tall, lightweight motard-style bikes due to the high seat height and lively handling.
PurposeDesigned for sharp, playful street riding with occasional light off-road or unpaved-road use rather than serious touring or racing.
Rider FitThe 840mm seat height and 178kg dry weight demand decent leg reach and confidence maneuvering a tall bike at low speeds.
CharacterA nimble, high-revving supermotard with strong midrange torque and inverted forks that reward an aggressive, flickable riding style through corners and city traffic.
Not Ideal ForNot ideal for riders seeking long-distance comfort, a passenger-friendly setup, or a low, easy-reach seat height.

2022 Macbor Montana XR5 500 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 840mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2022 Macbor Montana XR5 500, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 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.
