The two bikes are close enough that posture preference matters more than the overall score.
Rider fit: reaching the ground
The Ducati Hyperstrada has a 850 mm seat; the KTM 990 Supermoto T sits at 875 mm — a 25 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 85 cm for the Ducati Hyperstrada and 88 cm for the KTM 990 Supermoto T.
That makes the Ducati Hyperstrada the easier reach to the ground — the safer pick for shorter riders or anyone who wants both feet planted at a stop — while the KTM 990 Supermoto T 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.
