Rider Profile

Best ForWell suited to newer or returning riders thanks to its modest power delivery and manageable single-cylinder character.
PurposeDesigned as a light, versatile road bike blending naked-bike agility with mild touring comforts like a bigger tank and wind protection.
Rider FitA low-ish seat height and moderate 189 kg weight make it accessible to riders of average and smaller stature.
CharacterHas the thumping, characterful feel typical of a big single, rewarding relaxed, torque-driven riding over outright speed.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking high-speed performance, serious two-up long-distance touring, or off-road capability.

1999 MuZ Skorpion Tour Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 790mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 1999 MuZ Skorpion Tour, 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.
