Character	It has a simple, forgiving, kick-start character with modest power delivery suited to learning throttle and clutch control.
Not Ideal For	It is not suitable for highway travel, long-distance touring, carrying a passenger, or riders seeking strong acceleration or high top speed.

Feet:

At 776mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2016 Suzuki DR-Z125, with a cramped knee angle of around 65 degrees and an upright riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
