Rider Profile

Best ForPerfectly suited to brand-new riders or those who just want simple, low-stakes transportation without any learning curve.
PurposeBuilt purely for short, low-speed urban errands and commuting rather than any kind of performance riding.
Rider FitVery light and low, so it's easy for smaller or less physically strong riders to handle, park, and hold up.
CharacterA cheerful, unpretentious little runabout that prioritizes convenience and easy handling over speed or excitement.
Not Ideal ForNot for anyone wanting highway speeds, long-distance touring, a passenger, or any off-road capability.

2010 Yamaha Giggle Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 750mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2010 Yamaha Giggle, with a moderate knee angle of around 95 degrees and a slightly forward 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.
