Honda CRF250F vs Suzuki DR-Z250 ergonomics

Rider fit: reaching the ground

The Honda CRF250F has a 884 mm seat; the Suzuki DR-Z250 sits at 890 mm — a 6 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 88 cm for the Honda CRF250F and 89 cm for the Suzuki DR-Z250.

That makes the Honda CRF250F the easier reach to the ground — the safer pick for shorter riders or anyone who wants both feet planted at a stop — while the Suzuki DR-Z250 gives taller riders more legroom and a more open knee bend. Load your own height and inseam into the simulator to see exactly how each one fits you.
