Just a quick question... the differences between the UK Z model and the ZE.

I thought it was electronic suspension adjustment, heated grips and cruise control on the ZE, is that correct? just on the market for a Gen 2 S10 and I’ve seen the Z models with cruise control is that correct? is it standard on a Z model? or was it a factory option?

P.S If anybody is considering selling their Gen 2 S10 please let me know, cash buyer!

As said, both have cruise but the ZE has centre stand, heated grips, too box rack, pillion handles and a thicker pillion seat on top of the electronic suspension.

Thanks for replies.
On my search for a S10 I’ve also noticed all Gen2 Z have without exception a centre stand which I assumed was standard, I’m staggered this was only an option from Yamaha.
I suppose having the electronic adjustable suspension is a nice thing to have but not essential, very rare I ride with a pillion and full luggage but the cruise control would come in handy.
i’ll have to make sure I’m not paying over the odds for the ZE model then!
once again thanks for replies

I agree that the center stand should be standard. And, yes cruise control is wonderful. But, don't be too sure about not wanting the e-suspension. Yes, adjusting preload for passengers, and luggage, is very easy; I rarely change my preload setting. But, possibly more importantly, it allows you to adjust the compression/rebound setting to best match the road surface. . . . on the fly. . . . no need to stop. I don't about your roads, but mine suck. I choose the road(s) less traveled, and they're not maintained too well, so I have my "crappy road" setting, I also have my "nice road" setting. I just switch setting with a push of a button, or two. Mine's a '17 Cobalt Blue ZE.
