No. 18 is an FZ1, not FZS1000.

I forgive you
Quote from: nick crisp on 08 May 2015, 10:33:04 pmI forgive you Thanks so, what is the difference?
These pesky 600 riders eh Nick...I think all you need for a HPI is the registration number....you can get them sent to your phone by text for a few quid but id double check before paying exactly what details they are offering to find out.I looked on the HM Gov site and have found that its last MOT expired 18 May 2013 and it is indeed registered there as sorn.also on the HM Gov site was the facility to check the mot history which would include mileage but you need the registration number plus the V% document reference number to get that info.Looking at the guys ebay account he is also selling a Plough....yeh a full on Plough....(not for a fazer Christo)..........he got it for a contract that didn't materialise & doesn't have land to sell it.......He is also selling a fook off tractor (how welsh can you get) for 14K earth pounds and wants to downsize to a smaller tractor as he doestn have the work to justify the big one apparently.

I've just done some googling so not sure if this is the best site but should give you an example Nick if the link works.still involves dosh though.https://www.mycarcheck.com/check/?reg_no=lk03gvm
These pesky 600 riders eh
Quote from: noggythenog on 08 May 2015, 10:34:58 pmThese pesky 600 riders eh I'm still none the wiser but I'm reading between the hedges here that red FZ1 's and FZ1000 's are a lot slower than my red fzs600

I guess it would be courteous to contact the seller first and ask if he objects to me doing a check?
I was faster on my 600.....figure that one
The FZ1 is the big fazer from 2006 onwards, different bike, chassis, engine, fuel injected etc, emphasis on sports bit of sports tourer...............the older big fazer is the FZS1000 which is also quick but has an older carb R1 engine and is more comfy for touring & trimming.

Bit overpriced?
Maybe I'm being picky(?), but I'm looking for sub 10k miles really.
