Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a learner-friendly 50cc motard best suited to new or younger riders, typically ridden on a moped or restricted license.
PurposeDesigned for playful urban commuting and light supermoto-style fun rather than outright speed or distance travel.
Rider FitIts low 101 kg dry weight and slim frame make it easy to handle and flick around for riders of almost any size or strength.
CharacterA nimble, lightweight two-stroke motard with sharp steering geometry and a sporty, aggressive stance that punches above its tiny engine size in feel.
Not Ideal ForNot suitable for riders wanting highway speeds, long-distance touring comfort, or carrying a passenger any real distance.

2011 Rieju Tango 50 Motard Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 830mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2011 Rieju Tango 50 Motard, with a relaxed knee angle of around 120 degrees and a slightly forward 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.
