Honda Helix vs Suzuki Burgman 400 ergonomics

Rider fit: reaching the ground

The Honda Helix has a 665 mm seat; the Suzuki Burgman 400 sits at 711 mm — a 46 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 67 cm for the Honda Helix and 71 cm for the Suzuki Burgman 400.

That makes the Honda Helix the easier reach to the ground — the safer pick for shorter riders or anyone who wants both feet planted at a stop — while the Suzuki Burgman 400 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.
