Rider Profile

Best For	This bike suits experienced riders who are comfortable managing a large, powerful, and heavy V4 sport tourer.
Purpose	It's built for covering long distances quickly and comfortably, blending American V4 muscle with genuine touring capability.
Rider Fit	Riders should be reasonably fit and of average-to-tall stature to comfortably manage its substantial weight and upright but sporty riding position.
Character	The Motus MST appeals to riders who want a rare, boutique machine with a distinctive American V4 growl and serious high-speed touring performance.
Not Ideal For	It's not for beginners, budget-conscious buyers, or anyone seeking a lightweight, off-road-capable, or easy-to-maneuver city bike.

Units

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

Feet:

At 813mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2019 Motus MST, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 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.
