Rider Profile

Best ForWell suited to newer and intermediate riders thanks to its light weight, approachable power delivery, and predictable handling, while still offering enough punch to satisfy more experienced riders in everyday situations.
PurposeDesigned as a stylish, neo-retro all-rounder that excels at spirited backroad riding and daily commuting rather than long-distance touring or off-road use.
Rider FitThe low seat height, light overall weight, and narrow chassis make it easy for shorter or less physically strong riders to manage at a stop or in slow maneuvers.
CharacterA fun, flickable, torque-friendly twin with a retro-cool aesthetic that rewards playful riding over sheer top-end speed.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders seeking serious off-road capability, high-speed touring comfort, or heavy two-up long-distance travel.

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 Xtribute, 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.
