Goniffe Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 Can anyone let me know the difference between a Diversion and a non Diversion?I have a '97 600n that Im trying to scource parts for and there appears to be some confusion(or is it just me?).Ive seen bikes of around this era that are or seem to be identical to mine described as a Diversion and others with slight body mods and twin front discs also described as one.I was trying to get a fender extender and the guy on the phone couldnt tell me if the ones they had advertised would fit. Any clarity on this would be most useful.Thanks. Tony.

Moderator Airhead Posted November 12, 2012 Moderator Posted November 12, 2012 Ive seen the terms divvy and pre-divvy banded about, myself I havent got a clue lol, perhaps try bikepics site?
andythechef Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 yamaha pre diversions were made up till about 1982, these had twin front discs and an all in one instrument binnacle including a fuel gauge. they also had a more upright engine whereas the diversions engine was cantered foreward. hope this helps
Goniffe Posted November 13, 2012 Author Posted November 13, 2012 According to my reading of Haynes (which Ive only just obtained) is that the Diversion was introduced in 92.with a fairing. In 95 the N was introduced the only difference being the fairing and associated lighting etc.It would seem that only the S is strictly speaking a Divvy but if thats the only difference it hardly matters......
