Best for
A versatile sport tourer that balances weekday commuting with weekend backroad runs and light touring duty.
Built for
A high-revving, free-breathing 600cc four that feels eager and precise rather than brutal, with a chassis tuned for confident, stable cornering.
Not ideal for
Not the right choice for off-road riders or anyone seeking low-end torque grunt for lazy, low-rev riding.

At 785mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2014 Yamaha Diversion, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated. This is an approximation from category-typical geometry, not a measurement of this bike or of you - sit on one before you buy.
