bud Posted June 10, 2020 Posted June 10, 2020 They never made the DRZ in a 125cc version. You might like the DR125, if you want a 125cc four stroke. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.motorcyclenews.com/amp/bike-reviews/suzuki/dr125sm/2008/The DT was a great bike. Used mine off toad, and it did quite well. Quote

smallfrowne Posted June 10, 2020 Posted June 10, 2020 Really though. I've ridden the cg up a few flights (OK about 6 steps) of stairs. How difficult are green lanes? Aren't they just what horse people like to gallop around on and walkers like to turn into footpaths? Quote
skyrider Posted June 10, 2020 Posted June 10, 2020 have a look at the dt 125 on fleabay it is light blue £720 and is in pontefract and looks in really good condition and it is a 1982 model with a recent full engine rebuild Quote

Mitchey Posted June 12, 2020 Posted June 12, 2020 I've had two DR125'S in the past. Great robust little bikes that I would recommend but slow as feck.I'd go for two stroke. Easier to maintain. More power. Re-sale value. DT125KMX125TS125That's if you can get hold of one. These bikes seem to have cult status nowadays due to people re-living their youth. Prices tend to be high.Good luck.

skyrider Posted June 12, 2020 Posted June 12, 2020 yep the dt i told you about has seriously taken a hike in bidding wonga Quote
