Rider Profile

Best For	Best suited to licensed riders with solid experience, as the FJR's weight and power call for confident handling skills.
Purpose	Built for devouring long highway miles in comfort while still offering strong performance when the road turns twisty.
Rider Fit	At nearly 295 kg the bike demands decent strength and confidence at low speed, though its shaft drive and ergonomics ease long-haul fatigue.
Character	A powerful, refined sport-tourer that blends inline-four muscle with shaft-drive smoothness for effortless cross-country cruising.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for off-road adventures or riders seeking a light, flickable machine for tight urban commuting.

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

Feet:

At 800mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2008 Yamaha FJR 1300 AS, 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.
