Rider Profile

Best ForThis scooter is ideal for beginners or riders who want simple, low-stakes transportation without worrying about gear changes or handling a powerful machine.
PurposeIt's built for short urban hops, commuting, and running errands rather than any kind of performance or long-distance riding.
Rider FitIts light weight, low seat height, and automatic transmission make it very easy to manage for smaller or less physically strong riders.
CharacterIt has a friendly, unintimidating, practical character suited to everyday city life rather than excitement or speed.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the machine for highway touring, carrying a passenger long distances, or anyone seeking real acceleration or power.

2020 Yamaha Ray Z Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 760mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2020 Yamaha Ray Z, 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.
