Rider Profile

Best ForThis is an ideal machine for beginners or riders returning to smaller displacement bikes who want a stylish, easy-to-manage first motorcycle.
PurposeBuilt primarily as a lightweight, retro-styled commuter for zipping through city streets and short leisure rides rather than long-distance or high-speed touring.
Rider FitIts low seat height and light 134 kg weight make it very accessible for shorter or less physically strong riders to handle confidently.
CharacterThe XSR155 blends retro cafe-racer looks with modern underpinnings, rewarding riders who value style, nimbleness, and everyday usability over outright performance.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right choice for riders seeking highway touring comfort, high top speeds, or off-road capability.

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

Feet:

At 808mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2022 Yamaha XSR155, with a relaxed knee angle of around 120 degrees and a forward-leaning 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.
