Rider fit: reaching the ground

The Harley-Davidson Iron 1200 lists a 653 mm seat; the Indian Motorcycle Scout Sixty Classic lists 654 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.
