Rider Profile

Best ForThis is an entry-level 50cc scooter suited to beginners, new riders, or anyone needing a license-friendly moped-class runabout.
PurposeBuilt purely for short-hop urban commuting and errands, not for speed, distance, or performance riding.
Rider FitIts low seat height, light dry weight, and automatic belt transmission make it extremely easy and unintimidating for riders of almost any size or skill level.
CharacterA simple, no-frills small-wheel scooter with a friendly, practical, and unpretentious personality suited to everyday city errands.
Not Ideal ForThis is not for riders wanting highway speed, long-distance touring comfort, a passenger-friendly ride, or any kind of off-road capability.

2009 Yamaha Bws Naked Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 768mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2009 Yamaha Bws Naked, with a moderate knee angle of around 95 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.
