Hopefully, this will help make your decision a little bit easier.

One of these is called the MG-Moto Hanger. This little gadget is two inches wide in diameter and is easy to use. The hook has a two directional magnet so it can be put back together in whichever way that's needed. With a sleek design that is also practical, the top has a durable plastic dome with the company's logo, and on the back there is a no-slip rubber backing. This no-slip rubber allows the rider to hang their helmet or ridging bag off of a table, counter, or even on a bathroom hook if need be. No rider should be without this nifty, convenient gadget.

Founded in 1946, Honda was formed by Sorichiro Honda. Currently, this motorcycle giant is the largest manufacturer in the world. They are based in Tokyo, Japan and began to gain popularity in 1958. Honda doesn't only focus on being cutting edge in the motorcycle world. They offer many different styles of wheels.

Next gadgets are a GPS and a Radar Detector. These two can be very helpful while out on a long trip. Having a GPS allows you to know exactly where you are and how to get to where you want to go. Some GPS's can also find nearby attractions or stops to help you find the most convenient gas station, restaurant, or store.

Both DRs come with 4-stroke, SOHC, single-cylinder, air-cooled engines that Suzuki says are "designed for ease of operation and low maintenance." Transmissions are 5-speed. Front and rear are both drum brakes. The curb weight of the DR-Z125 is 194 pounds, while the DR-Z125L only adds 2 pounds, hitting 196.
