Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders with at least some prior experience, as the inline-four powerplant and naked ergonomics reward confident, active riding though remain approachable for a solid intermediate.
PurposeA do-it-all naked middleweight designed for spirited street riding, commuting, and weekend fun rather than any single specialized discipline.
Rider FitA moderate seat height and manageable curb weight around 201 kg make it accessible to riders of average height and build without being too light or toy-like.
CharacterRevvy inline-four engine character paired with an upright naked-bike stance gives it a versatile, energetic personality that feels equally at home slicing through traffic or attacking a twisty backroad.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders seeking a dedicated long-distance tourer, serious off-road capability, or outright top-tier sportbike track performance.

2011 Yamaha FZ6N Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 795mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2011 Yamaha FZ6N, 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.
