Rider Profile

Best ForThis is an entry-level pit bike best suited to beginners, kids, or riders wanting a cheap, low-stakes machine to mess around on.
PurposeBuilt for casual off-road play and recreational pit-bike riding rather than any serious enduro, racing, or commuting use.
Rider FitIts tiny size, low power, and light weight make it very unintimidating and accessible, though the compact frame suits smaller or younger riders best.
CharacterA playful, no-frills mini dirt bike with modest performance, simple carbureted single-cylinder power, and basic non-adjustable suspension.
Not Ideal ForThis is not for highway riding, long-distance touring, carrying a passenger, or anyone seeking real speed or serious off-road capability.

2016 Orion Jaguar 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 2016 Orion Jaguar, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and an upright 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.
