Harley-Davidson Pan America 1250 Special vs Honda NC750X ergonomics

Rider fit: reaching the ground

The Harley-Davidson Pan America 1250 Special has a 790 mm seat; the Honda NC750X sits at 800 mm — a 10 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 79 cm for the Harley-Davidson Pan America 1250 Special and 80 cm for the Honda NC750X.

That makes the Harley-Davidson Pan America 1250 Special the easier reach to the ground — the safer pick for shorter riders or anyone who wants both feet planted at a stop — while the Honda NC750X 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.
