Rider Profile

Best ForThis is an ideal machine for new riders or those just starting out on two wheels, given its modest power and light, forgiving nature.
PurposeBuilt primarily for short commutes and getting around town, not for speed or distance riding.
Rider FitIts light dry weight and low seat height make it very easy to handle for riders of almost any size or strength.
CharacterA simple, practical little scooter with an unpretentious single-cylinder engine, designed for everyday urban convenience rather than excitement.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the bike for riders seeking highway touring, passenger comfort, or any kind of off-road capability.

1997 Sym SYM Super Duke 125 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 730mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 1997 Sym SYM Super Duke 125, with a moderate knee angle of around 95 degrees and a slightly forward riding position.

Data quality: estimated (wheelbase estimated from this category's typical bike, not this model's own spec). 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.
