Rider fit: reaching the ground
The Honda XL125V Varadero lists a 800 mm seat; the Yamaha TW200 lists 790 mm — a 10 mm difference. 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.
On seat height alone, the Yamaha TW200 has the easier modeled ground reach. Load your measurements into the simulator to compare the model, then verify both motorcycles in person.
