Rider Profile

Best For	This is a small-displacement 50cc supermoto best suited to beginners, younger riders, or licensed riders looking for a lightweight, low-stakes bike to sharpen their cornering skills.
Purpose	Built as a mini supermoto, it blends a motocross-derived chassis with street-oriented wheels and brakes for playful, tight-radius cornering on tarmac and light trail use.
Rider Fit	Its very low dry weight and 850mm seat height make it extremely easy to manage, flick around, and pick up, suiting smaller or less experienced riders.
Character	Nimble, flickable, and eager to be thrown into corners, this bike rewards an aggressive, playful riding style rather than outright straight-line speed.
Not Ideal For	This is not the right bike for highway travel, long-distance touring, carrying a passenger, or riders seeking strong outright performance.

Units

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

Feet:

At 850mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with tip-toe one foot on the 2009 Sherco SM 0.5 Black Panther, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 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.
