Rider Profile

Best ForThis is an ideal machine for beginners or returning riders who want a light, forgiving, low-intimidation motorcycle to build confidence on.
PurposeIt's built as a simple, classic-styled commuter and learner bike for easy urban riding rather than outright performance.
Rider FitThe low seat height and light overall weight make it very manageable for shorter or less physically strong riders.
CharacterIt has an air-cooled, single-cylinder charm with modest, relaxed power delivery and a retro standard riding position.
Not Ideal ForIt's not a good fit for riders wanting highway-speed touring, aggressive cornering performance, or any off-road capability.

2009 Suzuki TU250 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 770mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2009 Suzuki TU250, with a moderate knee angle of around 115 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.
