Rider Profile

Best ForSuited to riders who have moved past complete beginner status and want a naked bike with real midrange punch and confident handling.
PurposeBuilt as an everyday sport-naked that excels at spirited commuting and weekend backroad riding rather than dedicated racetrack or long-distance touring use.
Rider FitA moderate seat height and manageable 216 kg wet weight make it accessible to a wide range of rider heights and strengths without feeling flimsy.
CharacterThe forward-inclined inline-four delivers smooth, revvy power and a distinct engine character that rewards riders who enjoy a lively, torque-rich naked bike.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders seeking a windscreen-equipped long-haul tourer or a machine capable of serious off-road adventure riding.

2013 Yamaha FZ8N ABS Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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 2013 Yamaha FZ8N 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.
