I was thinking of buying a Boxeye 600 in the future just to razz around on.

Good read. Thanks for posting :thumbup

The article says that the featured bike is a year 2000 model. I didn't think the Foxeye wasn't released until 2002?.

Yea that has to be a 2002 model, unless the owner fitted the fox eye fairing to an earlier model.

Mines done 93,000 and it's still good-to-go.
And I reckon it would certainly give an MT07 a run for its money.... and then some if I'm honest.
