Rider fit: reaching the ground
The Moto Guzzi Norge GT 1200 8V lists a 810 mm seat; the Suzuki GSX-S1000GT+ lists 810 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.
