The modeled scores are within three points, so the result does not distinguish a higher-scoring bike. Treat the result as a planning estimate and compare each bike's geometry confidence before a real test sit.
Rider fit: reaching the ground
The Norton Motorcycles V4CR lists a 836 mm seat; the Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RR lists 830 mm — a 6 mm difference. 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.
On seat height alone, the Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RR has the easier modeled ground reach. Load your measurements into the simulator to compare the model, then verify both motorcycles in person.
