The two bikes are close enough that posture preference matters more than the overall score.

Rider fit: reaching the ground

The Yamaha XSR900 Abarth has a 830 mm seat; the Yamaha XSR900 GP sits at 835 mm — a 5 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 83 cm for the Yamaha XSR900 Abarth and 84 cm for the Yamaha XSR900 GP.

That makes the Yamaha XSR900 Abarth the easier reach to the ground — the safer pick for shorter riders or anyone who wants both feet planted at a stop — while the Yamaha XSR900 GP gives taller riders more legroom and a more open knee bend. Load your own height and inseam into the simulator to see exactly how each one fits you.
