Rider Profile

Best For	Suitable for riders of nearly any experience level, including newcomers moving up from smaller scooters, thanks to the automatic transmission and manageable power delivery.
Purpose	Designed primarily as a comfortable, practical maxi-scooter for urban commuting with enough highway capability for occasional longer trips.
Rider Fit	A moderate 173 kg weight and low 695 mm seat height make it approachable for shorter or less physically strong riders to handle at a stop and in slow traffic.
Character	A refined, practical commuter with decent brakes and a twin-disc front end, offering confidence-inspiring stability rather than outright excitement.
Not Ideal For	Not for riders seeking sharp performance, off-road capability, or serious two-up long-distance touring comfort.

At 710mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2012 Suzuki Skywave 250 Type S, with a moderate knee angle of around 90 degrees and a slightly forward riding position.

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