The two bikes are close enough that posture preference matters more than the overall score.
Rider fit: reaching the ground
The Honda Ruckus has a 734 mm seat; the Suzuki Burgman 650 sits at 749 mm — a 15 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 73 cm for the Honda Ruckus and 75 cm for the Suzuki Burgman 650.
That makes the Honda Ruckus 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 650 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.
