Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a learner-legal 50cc scooter, ideal for beginners or those riding on a moped licence rather than experienced riders seeking performance.
PurposeBuilt purely for short urban hops and commuting, not for speed, distance, or off-road use.
Rider FitVery light and low-powered, making it easy to handle, flat-foot, and manage at low speeds even for smaller or less confident riders.
CharacterA sporty-styled, nimble little scooter with a two-stroke buzz and quick around-town agility despite its minimal power output.
Not Ideal ForNot suitable for highway riding, carrying a passenger any real distance, or riders wanting genuine performance or touring capability.

2013 Yamaha Aerox R 50 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 828mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2013 Yamaha Aerox R 50, with a moderate knee angle of around 105 degrees and a slightly forward 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.
