Rider fit: reaching the ground

The Husqvarna Motorcycles WR300 has a 985 mm seat; the Yamaha WR250F sits at 998 mm — a 13 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 99 cm for the Husqvarna Motorcycles WR300 and 100 cm for the Yamaha WR250F.

That makes the Husqvarna Motorcycles WR300 the easier reach to the ground — the safer pick for shorter riders or anyone who wants both feet planted at a stop — while the Yamaha WR250F 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.
