Wheelbase / length

67.9% of overall length. This shows how much of the bike’s total length is axle-to-axle distance rather than overhang.

Length beyond wheelbase

About 26.8 in (680 mm) combined beyond the axle-to-axle distance.

Bounding-box footprint

About 17.6 sq ft (1.63 m²), calculated from listed overall length × width. Useful for rough storage planning.

Clearance / wheelbase

9.7%. A simple ratio showing listed ground clearance relative to wheelbase.
