Rider Profile

Best For	Approachable supersport suited to intermediate riders and ambitious beginners; friendly torque and light weight make it a great step up without intimidating power.
Purpose	Sporty backroad carving and track-day duty. A budget-friendly middleweight sportbike built for cornering thrills over outright top-speed bragging rights.
Rider Fit	Aggressive clip-on riding position with 32.7in seat and forward lean. Slim, light 417lb chassis feels flickable, but committed ergonomics tire on long rides.
Character	Punchy, torquey CP2 twin in a razor-sharp fully-faired chassis. Playful, characterful and rewarding rather than brutal - accessible fun with real sportbike focus.
Not Ideal For	Not for tourers, two-up cruising, or riders wanting relaxed upright comfort. Off-road use and long highway hauls are outside its wheelhouse.

Units

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

Feet:

At 840mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2002 Yamaha YZF-R7, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 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.
