Rider Profile

Best For	This custom-built single is best suited to riders who value character and style over outright performance, and beginners to intermediates will find its modest power approachable.
Purpose	It is primarily a stylish urban and boulevard cruiser built for short rides and visual impact rather than any specific offroad or touring mission despite its enduro-influenced category listing.
Rider Fit	The low-ish seat height and light, narrow build make it manageable for most body sizes, though the kick starter and drum rear brake demand a bit more physical engagement than a modern commuter.
Character	It has a raw, air-cooled single-cylinder soul with thumping torque delivery low in the rev range, rewarding a relaxed, unhurried riding style with plenty of mechanical charm.
Not Ideal For	It is not for riders seeking real offroad capability, sustained highway touring comfort, or anything approaching sport-bike speed and cornering precision.

Feet:

At 785mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2015 Yamaha SR400 Lightening By Deus, with a cramped knee angle of around 65 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.
