What are the differences between Suzuki UU and UY?
1 Answers
The differences between Suzuki UU and UY are as follows: Flexibility: The UY is more flexible, with a more upright front suspension angle and a lower center of gravity compared to the UU, resulting in better handling and agility. The UU excels in legroom, while the UY's overly large front storage space makes it less comfortable for taller riders to place their feet on the front footrests. The UY's headlights are brighter, as two are significantly better than one, and the daytime positioning lights are quite attractive. Tires: The tires are equally poor on both models and perform badly on wet surfaces. The UY comes with a built-in USB charging port. The UY produces a distinctive Suzuki whistling sound, which is very pleasant, while the UU is almost silent in this regard. The UY's instrument panel outperforms the UU's, featuring trip meters A and B and a time display (which I particularly like), though prolonged use may cause visual fatigue. Although it shares the same instrument panel with Suzuki's 155/250 street bikes, the digital display and colors are slightly inferior, but this is understandable given the price difference. The UY's fuel consumption is about 0.4 liters higher than the UU's, likely due to it not yet being past the break-in period. Value for Money: The UY seems to be a China-specific model, tailored to Chinese aesthetic preferences. While the engine power is the same, the ignition tuning has definitely been adjusted. The UU has slower initial acceleration but stronger mid-to-high-range performance, which is typical of Suzuki. In contrast, the UY's ignition is more advanced, giving it better initial acceleration than the UU, though mid-to-high-range performance is similar. As for top speed, it's still within the break-in period, so no definitive conclusions can be drawn, but it's expected to be similar to the UU. Considering the reference prices, both bikes are worth buying, with the UU offering better value for money, while the UY is more youthful and sporty.
