Rider Profile

Best ForSuited to riders who value simplicity and classic mechanical feel over outright performance, including newer riders comfortable with a kick-start single.
PurposeBuilt as a minimalist, retro-styled single-cylinder roadster for relaxed city riding and short leisurely rides rather than speed or distance.
Rider FitLight weight and a low, narrow seat make it easy to manage at a stop and maneuver at low speeds, though the low-powered engine demands patience rather than muscle.
CharacterA charming, old-school machine that rewards a laid-back riding style, mechanical simplicity, and enjoyment of the ride itself over destinations or numbers.
Not Ideal ForNot for riders seeking highway touring comfort, passenger-friendly ergonomics, off-road capability, or brisk acceleration.

2014 Yamaha SR 400 35-YEARS Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 790mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2014 Yamaha SR 400 35-YEARS, 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.
