Rider Profile

Best For	Suitable for riders of almost any experience level thanks to the fully automatic CVT transmission and confidence-inspiring, scooter-style ergonomics.
Purpose	Built as a maxi-scooter for effortless commuting and relaxed long-distance touring rather than sport riding.
Rider Fit	The low, flat-footed seating position and automatic gearbox make it easy to manage despite its substantial weight, though the mass is noticeable at very low speeds and when maneuvering by hand.
Character	A refined, comfort-oriented grand tourer that trades outright agility for smooth power delivery, weather protection, and generous storage.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for riders seeking sharp cornering performance, off-road capability, or a manual, engaging riding experience.

Inseam (optional)

Units

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

Feet:

At 750mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2016 Suzuki Burgman 650, with a moderate knee angle of around 110 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.
