The two bikes are close enough that posture preference matters more than the overall score.

Rider fit: reaching the ground

The Honda CBR600F Hurricane has a 770 mm seat; the Honda ST1300 sits at 775 mm — a 5 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 77 cm for the Honda CBR600F Hurricane and 78 cm for the Honda ST1300.

That makes the Honda CBR600F Hurricane 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 ST1300 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.
