Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits newer riders or those upgrading from smaller learner bikes who want sporty handling without intimidating power.
PurposeIt's built for playful, nimble sport riding around town and twisty backroads rather than outright speed or distance covering.
Rider FitThe low seat height and light dry weight make it very manageable for shorter or lighter riders, and easy to flick around at low speeds.
CharacterIt has the look and componentry of a proper small sportbike, with an upside-down fork, wave discs, and a deltabox-style frame giving it a serious, race-inspired feel despite its modest 125cc engine.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right bike for highway touring, carrying a passenger in comfort, or riders seeking strong acceleration and top-end power.

2012 Motorhispania RX 125R Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 795mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2012 Motorhispania RX 125R, 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.
