Rider Profile

Best For	Best suited to riders with some prior experience handling a heavy, low-slung, torque-driven V-twin cruiser.
Purpose	Built for bold power-cruiser style and straight-line muscle rather than agility or long-distance comfort.
Rider Fit	The low 714mm seat height is approachable, but the substantial 294.8kg weight demands confident low-speed handling and upper-body strength at stops.
Character	A brash, big-bore performance cruiser with a chunky rear tire and aggressive stance that rewards throttle-happy, image-conscious riders.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for off-road use, tight technical cornering, or riders seeking a lightweight, nimble everyday commuter.

2008 Yamaha Warrior Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Your height

Inseam (optional)

Units

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

Feet:

At 714mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2008 Yamaha Warrior, with a cramped knee angle of around 80 degrees and an upright 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.
