My recently purchased 3rd gen 1 FZS600, 14k miles and mintier than a minty mint
I wish my black Gen1 was that tidy! I have 10k more miles on my clock too... :'(

Had to pay for it though! - 1 owner / full service history etc = £1650, would have liked a Foxeye but the ones I liked were just out of my price range range so this was the best compromise for me, a few more farkle bits to add + a new front tyre and job will be a good'un
You got a good price! I did a swap for my (better nick, and more desirable) Varadero 125, but the list price for it was £1700 - BEFORE I tidied it up! :eek Bloody dealers...
Now she has some upgrades !
180 section rear tyre, 40mm jack up kit, autosol, turtlewax & set the scottoiler on a realistic setting( previous owner was running it on prime !)
Just need to swap the lowered seat for a standard seat now as i am 6 ft & adequately touch the ground without such assistance !

changed the mirrors recently for these.
look better in gloss black than the originals imo and the indicators are a bonus
Your a bit young to be riding Fazers aren't you. You can't be much older than my little lad of 8. God knows how may times he's tried to convince me that he could ride it on his own, and then goes into a major sulk went I try to explain to him that he can't touch the ground. I love him to pieces though. He my best friend.

Joe is 3. He keeps asking me why I'm not going out on the red one. He also said I need to buy a blue one....
Opinions are like A**holes, Everyone has one. Some people seem to have more than one though which is a bit odd.

what's occuring here Simon
have you purchased another fazer after the spill???
or is it just someone else's next to it?
bit nosey arent i :lol
I got it off eBay for £970, but it might need the cam chain doing. I couldn't help it. All part of my early midlife crisis

well why have 1 fazer when you can have 2 eh!
good stuff man, sounds like a bargain & even if it turns out to be a lemon you've got all the pieces you need for 1 stonking fazer with spares left over & some cash back if you sell the others.Glad you're grabbing the bull by the horns & cracking on. 8)
Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike
