Best ForThis is an ideal machine for beginners or new riders still building confidence and basic skills.
PurposeBuilt primarily as an economical, easy-to-manage commuter for congested city streets and short daily errands.
Rider FitIts low seat height and light wet weight make it very manageable for riders of smaller stature or lower physical strength.
CharacterA humble, unpretentious workhorse that favors practicality, fuel efficiency, and low running costs over outright performance.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right choice for riders seeking highway touring capability, spirited cornering performance, or off-road adventure.

2017 Yamaha Fazer 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 2017 Yamaha Fazer, 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.
