Rider Profile

Best ForThis tiny 50cc automatic scooter is ideal for absolute beginners or anyone wanting simple, low-stress transportation with no shifting to think about.
PurposeIt's built purely for short-hop urban commuting, running errands, and light neighborhood riding rather than any kind of performance use.
Rider FitIts very low seat height, light 81kg weight, and small dimensions make it extremely easy and unintimidating for riders of almost any size or strength to handle.
CharacterThe Jog Petit is a cheerful, unpretentious little runabout that favors easy maneuverability and practicality over speed or excitement.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the machine for highway travel, carrying a passenger comfortably, long-distance touring, or anyone seeking real acceleration or power.

2015 Yamaha Jog Petit Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 770mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2015 Yamaha Jog Petit, 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.
