Rider fit: reaching the ground
The HM Moto CRE 50 Baja has a 925 mm seat; the Honda XL 350R sits at 920 mm — a 5 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 93 cm for the HM Moto CRE 50 Baja and 92 cm for the Honda XL 350R.
That makes the Honda XL 350R the easier reach to the ground — the safer pick for shorter riders or anyone who wants both feet planted at a stop — while the HM Moto CRE 50 Baja 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.
