Rider Profile

Best For	Ideal for beginners and new riders; a forgiving, easy-to-manage machine perfect for learning on a budget.
Purpose	Economical urban commuting and short errands. A no-frills, fuel-sipping city runabout with light touring ability at best.
Rider Fit	Light 107kg with a low 776mm seat and upright, relaxed riding position. Accessible for shorter and smaller riders.
Character	Simple, reliable, air-cooled single-cylinder classic commuter. Unintimidating, cheap to run, and endearingly basic.
Not Ideal For	Not for speed seekers, highway touring, two-up long trips, or off-road use. Underpowered for experienced riders wanting thrills.

Inseam (optional)

Units

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

Feet:

At 740mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2012 Suzuki GN 125, with a cramped knee angle of around 80 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.
