Best for
Built as a lightweight entry-level enduro, its purpose is casual trail exploration and learning off-road skills rather than performance or long-distance travel.
Built for
It has a simple, forgiving, low-stress character typical of small-bore air-cooled trail bikes from the late 1980s.
Not ideal for
It is not for riders seeking highway speed, long-distance touring comfort, or carrying a passenger any real distance.

Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.

Will it fit you?

Worked out in your browser - nothing is sent to us
At 740mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 1986 Suzuki DR 100, with a cramped knee angle of around 65 degrees and an upright riding position.

Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated. This is an approximation from category-typical geometry, not a measurement of this bike or of you - sit on one before you buy.
