New owner - Yamaluke - 23-08-14

Hi there.
Just bought a 2002 FZS600 which I pick up Monday! Cant wait, have heard good things about these bikes
Any things I should know? I'm aware of the front fender extender I need to get ( best one to buy?).Any further things I should know?
Any help would be gratefully received.
Thanks

I had a pyramid front fenda extender on my 600. Worked fine, but I imagine the cheaper ones are just as good.

have a look here:

search for "front sprocket nut". there is a known issue with these on the 600's. Yamahe released a different designed nut (12mm wide as opposed to 9mm). pop the sprocket cover off and have a look which one yours has got, and consider changing it if its 9mm wide. there are loads of threads with pictures and info about it if you search though Smile

Welcome to the forum!

I thinkĀ  thats BMC1 (Blue Metallic Cocktail 1), but if you look on the frame under the seat you should find a sticker with the model number and paint code I believe.
