Rider fit: reaching the ground
The Beta Motor Alp 200 lists a 830 mm seat; the Kawasaki KLX230 Sherpa S ABS lists 826 mm, within a few millimetres of each other. Seat height is only a first-pass ground-reach input. It does not establish safety or actual foot contact. Seat width, suspension sag, boots, mobility, load, and individual proportions can materially change the result.
