Rider Profile

Best For	This bike suits newer to intermediate riders who want a forgiving, non-intimidating middleweight sportbike.
Purpose	It's built as an entry-level sport-standard, equally happy commuting through traffic or enjoying a twisty backroad on the weekend.
Rider Fit	A moderate 785 mm seat height and relatively upright ergonomics make it manageable for a wide range of rider heights and builds.
Character	The inline-four engine and DOHC head give it a smooth, revvy character with a linear, approachable power delivery rather than outright aggression.
Not Ideal For	It's not the right choice for riders seeking track-level performance, serious long-distance touring comfort, or any off-road capability.

Units

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

Feet:

At 785mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2009 Yamaha FZ6R, 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.
