The two bikes are close enough that posture preference matters more than the overall score.
Rider fit: reaching the ground
The Suzuki DR-Z4S has a 920 mm seat; the Suzuki DR600S sits at 925 mm — a 5 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 92 cm for the Suzuki DR-Z4S and 93 cm for the Suzuki DR600S.
That makes the Suzuki DR-Z4S 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 DR600S 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.
