Suzuki RV 125 Vanvan weight overview
The weight is relatively manageable, so the bike should demand less effort than a heavyweight machine when backing up, parking or making slow-speed corrections. The comparison uses dry weight because a usable wet/running figure was not supplied, so the actual ready-to-ride motorcycle will be heavier.
