Rider Profile

Best For	This is best suited to an experienced rider who enjoys a big, air-cooled retro-styled naked bike with real muscle behind the throttle.
Purpose	It's built as a stylish, torque-heavy retro roadster for spirited street riding and boulevard presence rather than outright sport performance or long-distance touring.
Rider Fit	The solo seat, upright riding position and substantial 1251cc air-cooled engine mass mean it rewards riders with reasonable strength and confidence handling a heavy, physical machine at low speeds.
Character	It has a classic, muscular UJM personality with strong midrange torque, a raw air-cooled exhaust note, and premium Öhlins-equipped custom styling from Yamaha's Yard Built program.
Not Ideal For	It's not the right choice for new riders, offroad enthusiasts, or anyone wanting a lightweight commuter or a plush two-up touring machine.

Feet:

At 795mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2015 Yamaha XJR1300 Rhapsody In Blue, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: estimated (wheelbase estimated from this category's typical bike, not this model's own spec). 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.
