Rider Profile

Best ForWell suited to beginners and casual riders thanks to its light weight, low power, and easy-going nature.
PurposeDesigned as a lightweight, retro-styled scrambler for relaxed city riding with light off-road capability rather than outright performance.
Rider FitIts low seat height and slim, lightweight chassis make it very manageable for shorter or less physically strong riders.
CharacterCharming, simple, and unintimidating, it favors low-speed fun and character over speed or aggression.
Not Ideal ForNot suited for highway touring, carrying passengers over distance, or riders seeking strong acceleration or serious off-road performance.

2012 Suzuki Grasstracker Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 750mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2012 Suzuki Grasstracker, with a moderate knee angle of around 110 degrees and a forward-leaning 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.
