Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to experienced riders who are comfortable managing a nearly 400 kg fully-dressed touring machine at low speeds and in parking maneuvers.
PurposeBuilt for long-distance highway touring with a passenger and luggage, prioritizing smooth power delivery and comfort over sportiness.
Rider FitA tall, heavy cruiser-tourer that rewards riders with decent height, strength, and confidence handling significant weight at a stop or in slow turns.
CharacterA classic V4 shaft-drive grand tourer with a relaxed, torquey demeanor, full weather protection, and a plush ride suited to relaxed mile-eating.
Not Ideal ForNot for riders seeking agile cornering, off-road capability, or a lightweight, quick-handling machine for city commuting or track days.

2010 Yamaha Royal Star Venture S Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 749mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2010 Yamaha Royal Star Venture S, with a cramped knee angle of around 85 degrees and an upright 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.
