Suzuki DR-Z 125 weight overview

WHAT THIS MEANS

This sits at the very light end of motorcycle mass, which is especially useful when the bike has to be moved around by hand or held on uneven ground. The comparison uses dry weight because a usable wet/running figure was not supplied, so the actual ready-to-ride motorcycle will be heavier.

Suzuki DR-Z 125 weight FAQ

How heavy is the Suzuki DR-Z 125?

Listed dry weight is 173.9 lb (78.9 kg) to 176.4 lb (80 kg). Because no usable wet/running figure was supplied, treat that as a lower starting point rather than the exact on-road weight.

Is the Suzuki DR-Z 125 heavy compared with other Suzuki enduro/off-road motorcycles?

It is on the lighter side in this dataset. Its representative dry weight sits around the 12th weight percentile among 13 Suzuki enduro/off-road motorcycles, meaning most compatible models are heavier.

Does the Suzuki DR-Z 125 weight change by model year?

Not every covered year uses the same figure. The page groups identical values together and lists the later model years where the supplied weight specification changes.

How much does the Suzuki DR-Z 125 fuel weigh?

The listed tank capacity is 1.7 US gal (6.43 L) to 1.74 US gal (6.6 L). Using approximately 0.745 kg/L gasoline, a full tank is roughly 10.6 lb (4.8 kg) to 10.8 lb (4.9 kg). That is an estimate for fuel mass, not an official Suzuki curb-weight calculation.

How heavy is the Suzuki DR-Z 125 with an average-size rider?

A 180 lb rider brings the simple bike-plus-rider total to roughly 354.2 lb (160.6 kg) using the representative dry figure. Gear and luggage would add more.

Can I treat the Suzuki DR-Z 125 dry weight as curb weight?

No. The usable figure is dry weight, so it excludes at least some operating fluids. Dry weight plus the estimated full fuel load is about 184.5 lb (83.7 kg) to 187.2 lb (84.9 kg), and oil/coolant or definition differences may add more.

How much heavier is the Suzuki DR-Z 125 with a full tank?

The page calculates about 184.5 lb (83.7 kg) to 187.2 lb (84.9 kg) with a full tank by adding the listed fuel mass to the dry figure. Treat this as a practical estimate, not an official Suzuki curb-weight number.
