Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits beginner to intermediate riders who want a lively, manual-geared underbone that feels more engaging than a typical automatic scooter.
PurposeIt's built primarily for spirited urban commuting and light weekend fun rather than long-distance travel or serious performance riding.
Rider FitIts low seat height and light dry weight make it easy to manage for shorter or less physically strong riders, including confident new riders.
CharacterThe MX King has a sporty, street-focused underbone character with a peppy high-revving engine and nimble handling that rewards quick, flickable riding in traffic.
Not Ideal ForIt is not a good fit for riders seeking off-road capability, long-haul touring comfort, or serious highway speed.

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

Feet:

At 765mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2017 Yamaha Jupiter MX King 150, 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.
