The top one looks similar to the one on the 1000 -

Can you take a pic of of them side on with a ruler, so e can see the kick-out? In the meantime I will pop down to mine and take a pic with the little rubber boot off.

I didn't manage to take a better pic as it was raining, but the top one in the OP looks a lot like the one on my 2005. I will move the bike and take a side on pic tomoz if its not urgent.

Cheers for doing this mate, much appreciated. I'm thinking you are right as it almost matches the one on the other end of the linkage rod.

This is one off my 2003.





I replaced it with one off an R1 as they are a fair bit shorter.  Makes gearchanges much nicer (probably my favorite mod really as it affects all round use).

Thanks for this, I'm pretty sure the top one of the two is the fazer one.

Thanks again for this, yours looks pretty much identical to the top one in my first pic.
