Rider fit: reaching the ground
The Kawasaki KLX110R L has a 729 mm seat; the Suzuki DR-Z125L sits at 805 mm — a 76 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 73 cm for the Kawasaki KLX110R L and 81 cm for the Suzuki DR-Z125L.
That makes the Kawasaki KLX110R L 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-Z125L 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.
