Rider fit: reaching the ground
The Kawasaki KLX140R F has a 861 mm seat; the Yamaha TT-R125LE sits at 805 mm — a 56 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 86 cm for the Kawasaki KLX140R F and 81 cm for the Yamaha TT-R125LE.
That makes the Yamaha TT-R125LE the easier reach to the ground — the safer pick for shorter riders or anyone who wants both feet planted at a stop — while the Kawasaki KLX140R F 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.
