Am I missing something here?

[Dogbad]

Hi All,
Newbie to the FZ stuff here and been away from all bikes for about 13 years.
Just picked up an early 2005 registered bike with what I am told is a genuine 2400 miles on it! It's on the documents as a FZ6 Fazer. Has an upper fairing but no lowers.
I don't know whether it was a 2004 model out late or a 2005 model early in the year.
Is there anywhere a pictorial or at least idiot proof guide to the various varations on the FZ 6 so I can tell what mine is etc?
Sorry If I sound thinck but I did break my head:Flip:

I think you'll find that the 04/05/06 are all exactly the same
The Vin plate generally shows the production date though
I'm also pretty sure the lower faired models are much much newer, sounds like you have a FZ6S
Chuck up some pictures if you can that might help.

Thanks Zeladin.
I just got the Frame number from the M.O.T. certificate and speaketh to Yamaha U.K. It is a FZ6S.

I think it was confusion about year model, I mean he obviously knew it was a motorcycle

age is just a number right?


anyway, what color schemes do you have? toss up some pictures and we'll try to figure it out. Also if you can get a pic of the VIN plate

Depends how deep and meaningfully you want to look, you could say this post is just a random collection of alphabet symbols with spacings

Once you are passed your teens it doesn't really matter
I know the last few people to ask me have gotten the wrong answer, mainly because I haven't thought about it in a few years
