Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a very basic small-displacement machine best suited to absolute beginners or those needing simple, low-stakes transportation rather than any kind of performance riding.
PurposeGiven the specs listed, this appears to be a lightweight utility or step-through style commuter, not a genuine sport motorcycle despite the category label.
Rider FitIts low seat height, light 119 kg weight, and small frame make it extremely accessible to riders of nearly any size or strength.
CharacterIt behaves as a docile, unhurried machine with modest single-cylinder output, drum brakes, and a simple 4-speed gearbox suited to gentle, low-speed use.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right choice for anyone seeking real acceleration, highway touring capability, off-road performance, or carrying a passenger any real distance.

2007 Yamaha G5 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 800mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2007 Yamaha G5, 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.
