Rider fit: reaching the ground

The Honda XL1000V Varadero lists a 845 mm seat; the Moto Morini X-Cape 700 lists 843 mm, within a few millimetres of each other. Seat height is only a first-pass ground-reach input. It does not establish safety or actual foot contact. Seat width, suspension sag, boots, mobility, load, and individual proportions can materially change the result.
