Rider Profile

Best ForWell suited to newer riders progressing beyond a starter bike as well as experienced riders who want an easy, confidence-inspiring machine.
PurposeBuilt primarily for fun, torquey street riding and twisty backroads rather than outright top speed or long-distance touring.
Rider FitLow 805mm seat height and a light, slim chassis make it accessible for shorter riders and easy to manage at low speeds and in traffic.
CharacterA playful, torque-rich parallel-twin naked bike with light, flickable handling and an aggressive, stripped-down streetfighter look accentuated by its protective tubular cage.
Not Ideal ForNot ideal for riders seeking long-haul touring comfort, wind protection, or serious off-road capability.

2015 Yamaha MT-07 Moto Cage ABS Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 805mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2015 Yamaha MT-07 Moto Cage ABS, with a relaxed knee angle of around 120 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.
