Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to intermediate to experienced riders who enjoy an active, tall, flickable bike rather than newcomers seeking a low-key first machine.
PurposeBuilt as a supermoto for sharp, playful handling on twisty tarmac and light backroad duty rather than long-distance travel or serious off-roading.
Rider FitThe tall 890mm seat height and light 154kg wet weight demand reasonable leg length and favor riders comfortable standing and shifting weight actively.
CharacterA revvy single-cylinder, narrow-tire supermoto that rewards aggressive, precise riding with quick direction changes and strong cornering feedback.
Not Ideal ForNot ideal for riders wanting plush all-day touring comfort, pillion-friendly ergonomics, or genuine off-road capability.

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

Feet:

At 890mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with cannot reach comfortably on the 2025 Suzuki DR Z4SM, with a relaxed knee angle of around 140 degrees and a forward-leaning 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.
