What is the seat height on a Yamaha DT125? I am only 5ft 9 and don't think I would be able to flat foot. If it is too high would I be able to get the rear suspension lowered....Cheers
Tom

I'm 5'10'' with boots on and I had no problems with the seat height. You don't have to flat foot a bike to be able to ride it. You can lower the seat height by having the suspension professionally adjusted and/or the seat form shaved. But it isn't a huge bike, and you're not short.

The Yamaha website says the seat height is 915mm for the RE.

5 11 here and my DT125RE feels a tad big. cant fully put my feet down (heels off the floor)but I tend to have my right foot on the brake and leaning on the left foot when stationary so I dont need to be able to fully touch the floor.
