Rider Profile

Best ForThis is an entry-level scooter suited to complete beginners and riders wanting simple, low-stress transport.
PurposeIt is built for short urban commutes and running errands around town rather than any kind of performance riding.
Rider FitThe low seat height and light dry weight make it easy to handle for riders of nearly any size or experience level, including smaller or less confident riders.
CharacterIt has a modest, practical, air-cooled single-cylinder engine character focused on economy and ease of use rather than excitement.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the bike for highway touring, carrying a passenger long distances, or anyone seeking speed or off-road capability.

Character map is an editorial estimate based on this bike's specifications, not a lab-tested measurement.

2008 TGB F409 125 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 790mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2008 TGB F409 125, with a moderate knee angle of around 100 degrees and a slightly forward riding position.

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