Rider Profile

Best For	This muscular V-twin naked suits confident, experienced riders who appreciate massive low-end torque over outright top-end speed.
Purpose	Built as a torque-monster power cruiser, the MT-01 is meant for punchy roll-on acceleration and street muscle-bike theatrics rather than lap times.
Rider Fit	A tall seat height, wide chassis, and substantial wet weight of 265 kg demand a taller, stronger rider comfortable managing its heft at low speeds.
Character	It has a brutish, characterful personality defined by huge torque delivery, a booming air-cooled V-twin exhaust note, and a relaxed 5-speed gearbox rather than frantic revs.
Not Ideal For	This is not the right bike for new riders, off-road use, or anyone seeking a light, flickable machine for tight technical corners.

Your height

Inseam (optional)

Units

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

Feet:

At 825mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2010 Yamaha MT-01, 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.
