Hello All. - Salty - 31-10-18
A bit late with the intro seeing as I joined the forum about 5 months ago. Anyway I fancied a foxeye FZS600 years ago, but got diverted onto other bikes and then when I was considering a change I came across a one owner 2003 model with only 13000 miles on it. It looked almost new and was a very good price so here I am.I am really chuffed with it. It handles, accelerates and brakes so well and is so smooth and comfy. Perhaps because I am an old git I don't go for all the latest electronic gizmos, I like to think that I am skillful enough to control the bike myself so another plus point for me.Oh yeah, I like to do my own maintenance and the fazer seems fairly easy to work on.
A Happy Chappie

Welcome Salty. My 2003 Foxeye is now on 48k with no issues. So hopefully you've got many trouble free miles in front of you.
PS it's customary to post a piccy so we can all admire

Looks good. The best colour
Re: Hello All. - Anquetil - 04-11-18
I agree, looks in excellent condition. A gem of a find with such low mileage. Excuse my ignorance, but what is the object cable tied near the rear sprocket ?
Re: Hello All. - mtread - 04-11-18
I'm guessing a Scottoiler. Mine is tied up the same way
