Rider Profile

Best ForThis is an entry-level commuter machine well suited to new riders or those wanting simple, low-stress transportation, despite its sporty styling and naming.
PurposeBuilt for short urban and suburban commuting trips rather than performance riding, with modest power aimed at fuel efficiency and easy handling.
Rider FitIts very low weight and low seat height make it accessible and manageable for riders of nearly any size or strength.
CharacterIt has a light, nimble, and unintimidating personality that favors ease of use over excitement or speed.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the bike for riders seeking highway touring capability, off-road ability, or genuine sport performance.

Character map is an editorial estimate based on this bike's specifications, not a lab-tested measurement.

2018 Yamaha Saluto RX Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 785mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2018 Yamaha Saluto RX, with a moderate knee angle of around 110 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.
