FZS600 - Very Low Mileage and Excellent Condtion
« on: 05 September 2013, 10:15:19 pm »
See my bike and gear for sale on ebay.

The sad story is that I came on FOC_U many moons ago and based on advice (good advice) bought a FAZER 600 2003 one of the last of this model to be registered.

Well I loved that bike but in 2009 a major back problem nearly put me in a wheelchair - I joke not. Since then I have recovered but never really got confortable on the bike (I just felt having been so close to being disabled it was not worth the risk) and I have lost some strength so it just doesnt make sense. I've put it off for too long.

The bike is 2003 and genuine 6300 dry miles apart from one FOC-U weekender! The bike and all the gear are in good condition. The bike has been kept immaculate and cleaned after every ride and never ridden on salty roads. All standard apart from added gear indicator and heated grips.

This is one of the last of this mark to be registered and has sat in my garage since 2009 apart from the very infrequent short weekend ride.

I want it to go where it will be cherished and ridden as it should rather than stuck in my garage gathering dust.

If you want a FSZ600 you wont find a nicer example so bag it .....

'Tis a sad day Chris that you've finally had to make this decision  :'( , I really feel for you, but ultimately you have to do what feels right for you.

For anyone out there looking for a good Fazer 600, don't hesitate to have a look at this one, it's as near 'mint' as you could wish for, I've known Chris for several years and been out with him on the bikes a few times, and I'll vouch for its mileage and condition, it really will be a good buy for someone  :)

Don't suppose you'd be interested in selling the gear indicator seperately would you fella? Fancy one on my FZS, and the way yours hugs the clocks looks great!

Cheers

does it being an import have any affect on the insurance?

If the UK Importer brought in the same model its classed as a parallel import & there's usually no insurance loading.
As always check with your insurer as some may take a different view.

Insurance and servicing no problem.

I think a lot of the BS was tried by (some car and motorcycle) dealers/makers and Insurance to make money and keep the UK market separate for profit. The EU stamped on it.

The ONLY difference was kph speedo and light dipping and both changged to UK std.
