Rider Profile

Best ForSuits beginner to intermediate riders thanks to its light weight, low seat height, and manageable, torquey twin-cylinder engine.
PurposeBuilt primarily as a fun, affordable, lightweight naked bike for city streets and twisty backroads rather than outright speed or long-distance touring.
Rider FitThe low 805mm seat height and slim 180kg chassis make it easy for shorter or less experienced riders to handle confidently.
CharacterA playful, torque-rich crossplane twin with a raw, characterful exhaust note and agile, flickable handling that rewards spirited riding.
Not Ideal ForNot ideal for riders seeking high-speed touring comfort, long-haul wind protection, or off-road capability.

2016 Yamaha FZ-07 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 805mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2016 Yamaha FZ-07, with a relaxed knee angle of around 120 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.
