Buying a 600 or 1000?

[darrsi]

Couple of things to bear mind when reading that Visordown article:
It was based on the old boxeye 600 model. The foxeye has extras (like fully adjustable front suspension) and with a similar fairing looks every bit as good as the 1000 (IMHO)
The enormous price difference at new is now much closer of course. Probably no more than £500 difference for similar age and condition.
As others have said, it really depends on what you want to do with it. I love my foxeye 600, the ultimate 'all rounder'

It was only the '98 or '99 Boxeye's that don't have adjustable front forks, but the adjusters can simply be added if you want them.
