The Yamaha Fazer 600, or FZ6, is widely regarded as one of the best all-round motorcycles ever produced. The later S2 iteration, launched in 2007, took this successful formula – a comfortable, do-it-all bike with a potent engine – and brilliantly refined it with higher-specification components, sharper styling, and flawless fuelling.
If you’re seeking a reliable, highly capable, and exciting middleweight machine that can effortlessly handle everything from daily commuting to aggressive weekend carving, the FZ6 Fazer S2 is an outstanding investment on the used market.
The core strength of the Fazer S2 is its engine, which features a detuned version of the mighty Yamaha YZF-R6 supersport power plant, granting it an intoxicating split personality.
Ride it below 7,000 RPM, and the engine is wonderfully docile and smooth, perfectly suited for effortless urban traffic. However, cross the 8,000 RPM mark, and the R6 DNA kicks in—the bike comes alive, screaming toward its 12,000 RPM peak, making for an incredibly exciting and rewarding experience on open roads. Critically, the S2 models feature revised fuel injection mapping, ensuring superior throttle response across the rev range.
The FZ6 chassis is more sophisticated than many rivals, built around a lightweight, high-rigidity die-cast aluminum twin-spar frame.
The handling receives widespread praise for being light, nimble, and forgiving. The suspension setup achieves a rare feat, striking a great balance: comfortable for commuting yet firm enough to hold a line in aggressive cornering. The inclusion of the four-piston monoblock calipers on the S2 was a massive performance upgrade, offering strong and highly reliable stopping power.
The Fazer S2 maintains the half-faired, upright sport-touring stance, making it a natural choice for long-distance cruising and daily use.
The Yamaha Fazer 600 S2 is a legendary middleweight standard that simply excels at every discipline, providing the perfect synergy of low-end flexibility, touring capability, and the intoxicating rush of a true sportbike.
