125 vs 250 height difference?

10-12 lbs in the steel frame versions of a similar year. If you have tires that match the engines 1-1.5 lbs is in the back wheel when comparing the stock wheels. That gives you about 1/4-3/8" rear height. A 125 lives with a little softer springs in comparison to a heavier 250 lbs.

My 250 feels heavier compared to my 125's than the scales say.

When my girls graduated from the 85 to the 125, I adjusted the sag way down , the seat height was probably 2 or 3 inches lower with the rider on board. After the first season I set it back to stock specs.but to answer your question, in stock form there is no difference between comparable years and makes between the 125 and its older brother.
