Start with the size of the bike

The Light Bee 2 and Ultra Bee HP address different needs within the Sur-Ron range. The first keeps a compact format; the second is a larger, heavier package. Choosing only by model name or peak power can leave you with a motorcycle that is a poor match for your terrain or body size.

This comparison covers the 2026 Light Bee 2 documented in Canada and New Zealand, and the MY25 Ultra Bee HP documented in New Zealand. Ask the seller to identify these details on your quote. Similar names can refer to different model years and equipment.

A roughly 23.5 kg difference matters off the bike

Claimed weights are about 65 kg and 88.5 kg. That gap matters when moving the bike without power, loading it, or picking it up at a suitable riding area. It does not predict handling on its own: geometry, tires, and suspension settings also matter.

The Light Bee 2 seat is listed at about 830 mm, compared with 910 mm for this Ultra Bee HP. Try both seated and standing positions in your riding boots. Seat width, suspension sag, and inseam change how securely you reach the ground. A larger bike is not automatically more comfortable for every rider.

Peak power does not rank the whole motorcycle

The Light Bee 2 claims 24 kW in Turbo mode, while the MY25 Ultra Bee HP claims 21 kW. This does not make the Light Bee 2 an Ultra Bee equivalent. Peak output does not explain how long it is available, how the throttle responds, or how the chassis behaves.

The Ultra Bee HP carries more nominal battery energy in this comparison and lists 240 mm of suspension travel. Those are useful selection criteria, not a promise of longer range on every trail. Weight, pace, and elevation affect consumption.

Which one belongs on your shortlist?

Consider the Light Bee 2 when a compact bike that is easier to manage while stationary is a priority. Consider the Ultra Bee HP if you want more room and a package between a small bike and a full-size motocross machine. These are interpretations of published specifications, not the result of our own riding test.

Before ordering, ask about the exact version, suspension adjustment, warranty terms, and consumables. With NYVOLT, confirm how the offered motorcycle relates to the versions in this guide. A suitable size, an authorized riding location, and clear after-sales support belong in the same buying decision.
