Rider Profile

Best For	Best suited to riders with some experience handling big, heavy cruiser-tourers at low speed and in parking lots.
Purpose	Built for relaxed highway cruising and long-distance touring rather than sport riding or commuting agility.
Rider Fit	At 368 kg with a low 706 mm seat height, it's manageable once moving but demands strength and confidence when maneuvering it at a standstill.
Character	A classic air-cooled V-twin cruiser with laid-back power delivery, deep torque feel, and a traditional bagger touring character.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for riders seeking sharp cornering response, off-road capability, or a lightweight nimble city bike.

2016 Yamaha Star Stratoliner S Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Your height

Inseam (optional)

Units

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

Feet:

At 706mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2016 Yamaha Star Stratoliner S, with a cramped knee angle of around 80 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.
