Rider Profile

Best ForIdeal for beginners and returning riders; the light weight, gentle 12 HP power delivery and forgiving nature make it very easy to learn on both on and off road.
PurposeA lightweight dual-sport for commuting, back-road exploring and light trail riding. Great for mixed tarmac and dirt use rather than serious enduro or highway work.
Rider FitTall 839mm seat and 244mm ground clearance with an upright, roomy stance. Slim and low mass (139kg) keeps it manageable, though shorter riders may find the height a stretch.
CharacterCheerful, no-fuss and economical air-cooled thumper. Not fast, but light, dependable and playful - happiest pottering around town or on dirt roads at modest speeds.
Not Ideal ForNot for riders wanting highway speed, long two-up touring, track use or hardcore off-road. The modest power and drum rear brake limit outright performance.

2021 Suzuki DR150 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 839mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2021 Suzuki DR150, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a slightly forward riding position.

Data quality: estimated (wheelbase estimated from this category's typical bike, not this model's own spec). 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.
