Rider Profile

Best For	This bike suits new to intermediate riders who want a light, manageable street naked to build skills on.
Purpose	It is designed primarily as an urban commuter with a sporty street-fighter attitude rather than a highway or track weapon.
Rider Fit	Its low weight and modest 780mm seat height make it accessible to riders of average or shorter stature.
Character	The RTR 165 has a spirited, naked-streetfighter personality with sharp styling and nimble, flickable handling typical of small-displacement single-cylinder commuters.
Not Ideal For	It is not a good fit for riders seeking sustained high-speed touring, long-distance comfort, or serious off-road capability.

Units

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

Feet:

At 780mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2016 TVS RTR 165, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 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.
