Rider Profile

Best ForA friendly, forgiving machine well suited to beginners and riders returning to biking after a break.
PurposeBuilt for relaxed cruising, low-speed boulevard riding, and easy commuting rather than outright performance.
Rider FitIts low seat height and modest dry weight make it approachable for shorter or less physically strong riders.
CharacterA classic air-cooled V-twin cruiser that favors laid-back torque delivery and simple mechanical charm over speed or sharp handling.
Not Ideal ForNot suited for riders wanting high-speed touring, aggressive cornering, or any serious off-road capability.

2000 Yamaha XV 535 DX Virago Deluxe Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 720mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2000 Yamaha XV 535 DX Virago Deluxe, with a cramped knee angle of around 80 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.
