This is an old photo and I'm not sure where is comes from (not US, for sure), but does anyone know what the Two Types refers to? I see some little differences (wheels for one) but what else?

I believe that's only in Japan. And from what I can see the wheels look to be the same.

You are probably right. It's hard to see the white one's wheels and I thought they looked spoked, but a second look says otherwise. Anyhow, what's the deal with "Two Types?"
It's about the handle bar, I think.
"Type 2" is the lower handlebar.

Got it! Thanks Fruno.
The only obvious visible difference is the fuel tank color. Type 1 is red. Type 2 appears to be white , grey, or silver.
It looks like the white one sits higher in the back than the red one...

Probably just perspective camera angle - closer (white one) will look larger.
I think the one on the left has ABS. Looks like it has the speed sensor on the front wheel. The photo is too fuzzy to confirm though.

I'm going to agree with you, not because of the reluctor wheel, because quite frankly I can't see if it's there or not, but because I can clearly see two brake lines coming from the right caliper and that would only be the case if the bike had ABS.
