Posted August 18, 200915 yr I have a FS1-SE (chopper) bike. It has only done around 3k miles from new ('Y' reg 82-83), could anyone give me a rough value for this bike as I have searched everywhere on the internet, but to no avail. Cheers in advance Darren
August 18, 200915 yr Hya there mate, you've got yourself a small goldmine there to a specialist collector!!! There's only 10 roadworthy FS1SE's known to exist by the Fizzy club atm. I recently had an FS1SE till a nice copper caused me to crash it!!! (The C**T!!!) If you can post some piccies i can give you a rough idea, but normally they go for around 500-1.000. Depending very much on the condition and if the right buyer turns up!! Your best bet with it is not to ebay it if you want to sell it but do it privately, as the SE's are a collectors bike. but if it's in near mint condition your looking at maybe 800quid to the right buyer. If not anything below, thats including an MOT and Tax btw! Hope that helps fella
August 19, 200915 yr just seen a "M" reg (1973) FS1E on ebay for over 2 grand ...my bro had an "N" reg one 1974 i think bought it for £120 back in 1987 had the pedals on it etc 60cc big bore kit and he sold it to his mate for a fiver!!!!! generally ive seen them selling for £800 upwards as AL stated

August 20, 200915 yr lol i missed the extra S ...dont recall ever seeing an FS1SE any pics? Found this pic: weird looking bike...
August 20, 200915 yr lol yeo one weird looking bike....the forks look like they would snap!! and i can truly say i aint ever seen one b4 no wonder there rare!!
August 20, 200915 yr Found this pic: weird looking bike... Thats not a Standard SE i'll tell you that fora fact i'll dig out some of my old piccies of mine.
August 21, 200915 yr Thats not a Standard SE i'll tell you that fora fact i'll dig out some of my old piccies of mine. Yeah, it does look 'wrong', I think the fork legs have been extended (probably making it lethal to turn). Here's a pic of a proper one:
August 26, 200915 yr that looks brand new lol how old is it?.....think i have an old photo of my bro's 1973 model, will have to get it scanned onto comp!!
August 27, 200915 yr Thats not a Standard SE i'll tell you that fora fact i'll dig out some of my old piccies of mine. Hi' for sure its not it appears to have Fantic Motor chopper forks and and an FS1E base rather than an FS1 base but I could imagine that in other parts of the world the FS1E could be used as a base as the UK restrictions would not apply. Regards Jim
August 27, 200915 yr that looks brand new lol how old is it?.....think i have an old photo of my bro's 1973 model, will have to get it scanned onto comp!! Thanks its an unrestricted 1977
August 29, 200915 yr Thanks its an unrestricted 1977 from what part of the world did that come from ? Regards Jim
August 29, 200915 yr from what part of the world did that come from ? Regards Jim Originally Chelmsford/Braintree Essex now resides in Southend Essex
August 30, 200915 yr Originally Chelmsford/Braintree Essex now resides in Southend Essex Hi , I ask that because the FS1SE did not come into being in the UK until the 1980's and from memory the frame and engine numbers were prefixed with the code 5A1 and it would appear the bike in the photo is just a 1977 FS1E with later SE parts fitted and some bad mods to the handle bars & forks. Regards Jim

Regards Jim Mine is actually a 1977 FS1E-A Which was originally Space blue.
November 10, 200915 yr Here's my Fizzy(Chopper) which I paid £195.00 for in totally original condition except for the handlebars. 2500 miles from new although it has never been registered or on the road as it was used by a school to teach kids how to ride a bike Go to the newly formed YAMAHA FS1E OWNERS CLUB for information on the SE (Chopper) and all other models of the legendary "Fizzy" Sports Moped http://www.fs1eoc.co.uk
