Rider fit: reaching the ground

The Kawasaki W800 Street lists a 770 mm seat; the Kawasaki Zephyr 550 lists 770 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.
