47X AND 1GE WHAT THINGS ARE DIFFERENT ?
****EDIT*****
The IGE bikes left the factory with welded clip on bars as per the 47X bikes.
The 1GE clip on was only available if you ordered the part from a Yamaha dealer,it never came with the 1GE bikes from new.
*****************************************************************************************
I keep coming across different parts between the two models so i just wanted to start a post where everyone could list any they have come across.Here is a photo of a new 1GE clip on (top)and new 47x clip on (bottom).

Hello,
Am I right in saying that the length of top silencers baffle tubes (can`t think of what eles to call them ) are longer.
ie the chrome bits stick out more !

Hi Bill,The 47x and 1ge both have the twin tank system but the 1ge main tank is green and transparent and the 47x is black.I think the coolant tank is green as well with the 47x tank being black.
Here is a good photo of the short 47x upper pipe baffle and the longer 1ge baffle.

Steve is correct - the earlier production models came with black plastic tanks for both oil and coolant, while the later production units were equipped with greenish-colored see-thru tanks. It's also interesting to note that the Canadian 52X and Aussie 53G RZ models retained the same 3-digit prefix throughout the 3 production runs, while the RD models were separated by the change in 47X and 1GE prefixes between the 1st and 2nd production runs.
Square and round exhausts?
I noticed this difference on the lower exhausts:
47X with a round end
I can't see the part number on these but assume they are 1GE with square ends. I wonder why they did that?
You can tell it is Sunday, the weather is bad and I am bored!!! Cheers.
