Rider Profile

Best ForWell suited to newer and intermediate riders thanks to its manageable weight and approachable torque delivery, while still rewarding more experienced riders in twisty environments.
PurposeA versatile retro-styled roadster built primarily for spirited city riding, weekend backroad fun, and light café-racer style cruising rather than outright speed or long-distance touring.
Rider FitThe low-ish seat height combined with a compact, lightweight chassis makes it accessible to riders of varying inseams and physical strength.
CharacterOffers a charismatic, torquey CP2 twin-cylinder feel with agile, flickable handling that encourages playful riding over raw straight-line performance.
Not Ideal ForNot the ideal choice for riders seeking high-speed touring comfort, long highway range, or any genuine off-road capability.

2019 Yamaha XSR700 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 815mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2019 Yamaha XSR700, with a relaxed knee angle of around 125 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.
