The two bikes are close enough that posture preference matters more than the overall score.
Rider fit: reaching the ground
The Buell Blast has a 699 mm seat; the CFMoto Papio CL sits at 739 mm — a 40 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 70 cm for the Buell Blast and 74 cm for the CFMoto Papio CL.
That makes the Buell Blast the easier reach to the ground — the safer pick for shorter riders or anyone who wants both feet planted at a stop — while the CFMoto Papio CL 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.
