Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a beginner-friendly machine that new riders can master quickly while still offering enough character to stay engaging as skills grow.
PurposeBuilt primarily as a light, affordable commuter and street bike for navigating city traffic and short trips with agility rather than outright speed.
Rider FitIts low seat height and light 132 kg weight make it very manageable for shorter or less physically strong riders to handle at a stop and in slow maneuvers.
CharacterIt has a nimble, flickable naked-bike personality with modest single-cylinder power that rewards revving it out rather than relying on brute torque.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right bike for riders seeking highway-devouring touring comfort, high-speed performance, or serious off-road capability.

2021 Yamaha Vixion Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 795mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2021 Yamaha Vixion, with a moderate knee angle of around 115 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.
