Now SOLD.
[size=1em]Yamaha Fazer FZS600 2003, in deep metallic purplish blue - the coolest colour of Fazer![/size]

[size=1em]Great all round bike, as commuting hack, small tourer or fun blast at weekends. Showing some age, but maintained to a very high standard with all the big service items sorted. It has had a couple of drops but only received cosmetic damage, the majority of which has been repaired to a high standard.[/size]

[size=1em]I’m second owner of bike, had it just over 6 years, used it as my daily commute, fun weekend bike, longer distance touring and two-up pillion riding. I’ve kept it in tip-top shape and well maintained throughout, on average putting 8-10k a year on it.[/size]

[size=1em]Done 62866 miles (note clocks had to be replaced due to fuel gauge failing, new set show 6k less i.e. 56866). Unlikely to change, as I’ve a new bike for commuting now.[/size]

[size=1em]600cc inline 4 giving 95 bhp. Averages 50mpg ish, with a 200-230 mile range before fuel light comes on![/size]
[size=1em]Note the 2002-2003 FZS600’s have many advantages over older Fazers: large 21 litre tank, better mirrors (from FZS1000), better looking Fox-eye fairing, better headlights, preload adjustment on forks, better pillion pegs and grab handle and clocks with a clock!.[/size]
