putting prejudice aside, ie; accoirding to what you own

which is best boxeye or foxeye?  What would you buy?

and what would you buy if you had just £1500, no more

love to know with reasons as relevant,

like are they both as comfortable over long distance  :)

If you were to be brutally honest what mpg would you say that you normally get out of this model, box or fox eye, with the retuned thundercat engine?

FZS600 Fazer / Differences between Mk1 FZS6 models
« on: 02 November 2013, 11:46:41 am »
Is there any real advantage in buying the later models with the bigger fuel tank etc or is the original 1998 model perfectly acceptable please,

any views/opinions on the pros and cons of the variations and which to go for would be welcome as I am considering buying an FZS6 bike.


Got this from Wikipedia:-1998: Yamaha FZS600 Fazer launched.
  • 1999:
  • 2000: Yamaha FZS600 Fazer S Introduced several minor changes including larger fuel tank, improved pillion comfort and preload adjustment on front shocks.
  • 2001: Several cosmetic changes, including carbon look instrument panel and painted fork sliders.
  • 2002: Yamaha FZS600 Fazer New front fairing design, nicknamed "Foxeye". Improvements included new fairing design similar to the FZS1000, sculpted tank and new instrument panel.
  • 2004: Yamaha FZS600 Fazer discontinued.

I have read that the first Fazers had a mechanical weakness insofar as the front sprocket retaining nut can come loose potentially wrecking the output shaft

yamaha released a deeper nut with more thread as an update but the thread on the output shaft remained unchanged , huge bill to change tha shaft apparently

was this defect put right on the 2002 model with the bigger fuel tank does anybody know please?

Would be most grateful to find out before buying.
