Rider Profile

Best For	Well suited to beginners and riders building confidence, including those new to dual-sport or off-road riding.
Purpose	Designed as a lightweight, easy-going dual-sport for light trail exploration, commuting, and general knocking-about rather than performance riding.
Rider Fit	Its low weight and manageable but tallish seat height make it approachable for most body sizes, though shorter riders may need to adjust to the off-road-oriented stance.
Character	A friendly, unintimidating single-cylinder machine that favors simplicity, low running costs, and forgiving handling over outright speed.
Not Ideal For	Not a good fit for riders wanting high-speed highway touring, sport riding, or carrying a passenger over long distances.

Inseam (optional)

Units

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

Feet:

At 810mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2009 Yamaha XT250, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 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.
