Rider fit: reaching the ground
The Kawasaki Z650RS has a 820 mm seat; the Triumph Trident T150 750 sits at 813 mm — a 7 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 82 cm for the Kawasaki Z650RS and 81 cm for the Triumph Trident T150 750.
