Rider fit: reaching the ground
The Moto Guzzi Norge 1200 GT 8V lists a 800 mm seat; the Triumph Trophy 1200 lists 800 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.
