Rider Profile

Best For	Suits riders with at least some prior experience, from confident newer riders to seasoned ones, thanks to its manageable power delivery and forgiving chassis.
Purpose	A versatile naked-sport machine built for spirited road riding, commuting, and occasional longer trips rather than dedicated track or off-road use.
Rider Fit	A moderate 219 kg curb weight and 815 mm seat height make it accessible to most rider statures, though it still demands reasonable strength at low speed and standstill.
Character	Delivers a punchy, torquey in-line four engine wrapped in a light aluminium Deltabox frame, giving a lively yet composed and confidence-inspiring ride.
Not Ideal For	Not the ideal choice for riders seeking a dedicated off-road, adventure-touring, or pure track-focused superbike experience.

Units

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

Feet:

At 815mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2012 Yamaha FAZER8 ABS, 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.
