99 FZS 600 - Original factory colour options.

[No]

Hello this is an introductory query really. I do have plenty of other questions but i shall start here.


I've tried searching the colour options in which the 1999 Fazer 600 were originally available in (Excuse the wording)


They do not mention White & just wondered if it was a standard colour or if it was a dealer option of sorts, as personally i have never seen a gen 1 white on the road (could just be bad luck or the pepperpot of a county i live in)


IF anyone knows what colours were available as standard it would be appreciated as they seem to list golf black burgundy and silver.


Kind regards.

My 1999 is also White BUT it states White on the logbook. Which was where my confusion started.

When a vehicle colour is changed the owner should inform the DVLA by sending the V5C back with details of the change and a new V5C will be issued showing the new details.

Not my old one then. There was another foccer on here years ago (Snooky??) that had a white one. Not an original colour but then neither was the lime green one that Slidey had either.

Ahh this must be the answer then.


Had absolutely no idea you could change the colour of the bike on the logbook.


Figured it wouldn't be possible but now you mention it, if the Authorities were looking for a certain bike, it would HAVE to be updated otherwise you could change colour & stick a private plate on it to avoid detection. Silly me.


Again excuse the wording & thanks!

Yeah i should've done a bit more research before asking silly questions. My research consisted of looking on used bike sales for a white 99 & googling original factory colours.
