Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders with at least some experience on tall, lightweight bikes, since the high seat and single-cylinder torque delivery reward confident low-speed control.
PurposeBuilt primarily as a big single-cylinder enduro for mixed on- and off-road use rather than outright speed or long-distance cruising.
Rider FitRiders should be comfortable with a tall 865mm seat height and a narrow, upright standing position typical of dual-sport machines.
CharacterA rugged, torque-driven single with a playful, agile feel that rewards a rider who enjoys standing on the pegs and tackling rough terrain over one who wants smooth highway cruising.
Not Ideal ForNot ideal for riders seeking high-speed touring comfort, passenger-friendly ergonomics, or track-day performance.

2005 Yamaha XT 660 R Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 855mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with tip-toe one foot on the 2005 Yamaha XT 660 R, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 degrees and a slightly forward 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.
