Rider fit: reaching the ground
The Benelli TNT 1130 has a 780 mm seat; the Ducati Monster 696 sits at 770 mm — a 10 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 78 cm for the Benelli TNT 1130 and 77 cm for the Ducati Monster 696.
That makes the Ducati Monster 696 the easier reach to the ground — the safer pick for shorter riders or anyone who wants both feet planted at a stop — while the Benelli TNT 1130 gives taller riders more legroom and a more open knee bend. Load your own height and inseam into the simulator to see exactly how each one fits you.
