I notice (from owning other Yamahas and also having a later type Oil filter in-stock), that this model Fazer has a particularly small oil filter.
Does anyone know if the larger capacity oil filter from the 2004 onwards fits and works on the carb models ?.

From memory the filter on the FZ6 is longer and slightly smaller in O/D by a few mm but the thread should be the same, it should fit FZS. If you've got the longer type just try it, you'll only lose a little oil when spinning off the filter, the surface area the oring seals against is flat so it should be ok.
If it spins on which I'm confidant it will and as long as there's clearance between the filter and the down tubes, start the bike and look for leaks, if it's going to it will almost immediately, certainly within a few mins.
Thinking about it, I got a few of the latter type delivered by mistake some years back I'm sure they just fitted. Anyway try the above, it will save wasting them.
