Rider Profile

Best ForWell suited to beginner and intermediate riders thanks to its modest displacement, low-end torque delivery, and approachable handling.
PurposeBuilt primarily for relaxed cruising and stylish urban riding rather than outright speed or long-distance touring.
Rider FitThe low seat height and manageable weight make it accessible for shorter riders, though the wide bars and cruiser stance suit a relaxed, upright posture.
CharacterA classic bobber-styled cruiser with a punchy air-cooled V-twin, offering easy low-speed torque and a laid-back attitude over performance.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders wanting high-speed touring capability, aggressive cornering performance, or any off-road versatility.

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

Feet:

At 765mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2020 Yamaha Bolt C-Spec, with a cramped knee angle of around 85 degrees and an upright 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.
