Model - bigsteve - 26-08-12
simple question from the terminally bewildered
Whats the difference between FZS 600 and a FZS 600 SP ???????
My good lady has a 51 plate 600 ( square head light )
Is that FZS600 OR FZS 600 SP as wemoto the year shows up as a SP
so wondering the difference
Re: Model - marksfazer - 26-08-12
I believe it was just paint. The SP's had multi color.

Er well i am even more confused hers is one colour
so even though hers is 51 plate its just a FZS 600 then

RYC1 (Deep Reddish Yellow Cocktail 1)VRC1 (Vivid Red Cocktail 1)BL2 (Black 2)SM1 (Silver Metallic 1). S model introduced with 3-tone colour scheme.. Pre-load spring adjuster added to front forks.. Tank 'increased' 2li to 20 litres (by reducing the depth of the overfill pipe).. Both tank breather tubes no longer directly connected to the tank but now via a new inverted funnel secured to a fairing cross member.. Pillion comfort improved: Rear pegs lowered 45mm & moved forward 10mm and pillion seat padding increased by 16mm.. Exhaust angle lowered to accommodate longer pillion pegs.. Pillion pegs redesigned to remove 'barb' from handhold/luggage-retention projection and the 'eyelet' hole is reduced in size. Pillion pegs are now rubber coated also.. Clutch springs and friction plates redesigned (used to be grabby selecting 1st on cold start).. Gear lever / shift arm 4mm longer.. Pillion grab-rail changed from plain black steel tube to colour coded FRP moulding.. Clocks changed to include an extra second trip meter and a digital clock/timepiece.. Hazard warning button added to left hand switchgear.. Some changes to electrical connectors (e.g. headlight mod connector now black, used to be blue).2001. Model number 5DMC..

Carbon-effect clock surround (used to be gold-effect).. Silver painted fork lowers (previously plain alloy).. Plain (silver) steel rear sprocket (used to be black).. Helmet holder missing (used to be a welded, bent steel rod under the seat).. Yamaha changed the recommended service interval on all their 2001+ models to 6000 miles (previously 4000 miles). No material changes were made to specifically accommodate this, so it could be considered 'backward compatible' if you choose.
IF IT'S X OR Y PLATE, 00/01, THEN IT'S AN SP
Re: Model - bigsteve - 26-08-12
So from that i know it has
1/ adjusters on top of forks
2/ the funnel for tank over flow
3/ two trip meters
4/ hazard switch
5/ carbon clock surround

Re: Model - darrsi - 27-08-12
Fork adjusters, 2 litre bigger tank, and bit more comfy for passengers, they're the important bits!
I changed my forks for older one's, without the adjusters (long story) but always prefer hard suspension anyway, so it's still all good!
My bike's all black by the way!
