I quite like the look of that.

Re: Next generation Fazer ?? - locksmith - 17-10-14

I'm not a fan. Looks too much going on - if that makes sense?

I know I'm comparing it to my naked MT-09, so I'm used to, well, the nakedness Smile

Re: Next generation Fazer ?? - fazer390 - 17-10-14

Looks like another Tiger or a GS copy which all look the same to me. Definitely not an FZ! Undecided

Re: Next generation Fazer ?? - Dead Eye - 17-10-14

Still doesn't really meet the specification of the Fazer in my opinion; particularly not the thou

Re: Next generation Fazer ?? - brooker81 - 17-10-14

yuk.

Re: Next generation Fazer ?? - stevierst - 17-10-14

I like it. Sort of little multistrada/tiger type of bike with a cracking power delivery!

It's not a Fazer though.

Re: Next generation Fazer ?? - ChristoT - 17-10-14

My take exactly.

Reasonably cool, but it's yet another adventure tourer, to join half the Triumph range, half the BMWs, the V-Strom, etc etc etc.

I argue that no new bike out there is worthy of the Fazer name. Fazers are versatile, half faired, street bikes with sports tourer comfort and bottom end sports bike performance. The Street Bike category is one sadly missed.

Ohh there's something out of Yamaha worthy of a Fazer tag...I LIKE THAT

Re: Next generation Fazer ?? - chaparral02 - 19-10-14

Looks like it has hard panniers mounts as standard that don't ruin the look of the bike.....At last..

So a half faired, street bike which looks comfy enough and with MT-09 performance (more than sufficient to deal with the old FZS600) is no where near good enough?

Re: Next generation Fazer ?? - BIG MAC - 19-10-14

The screen needs to be wider though that gap is plain stupid on a bike that's going to do miles

Re: Next generation Fazer ?? - dBfazer600 - 19-10-14

Ugly and why is it that every bike is look as if its missing a good solid hunk of metal between the legs.

Re: Next generation Fazer ?? - kitcrazy - 19-10-14

not a fan

Re: Next generation Fazer ?? - bri h - 19-10-14

not the pretiest bike ive ever seen but looks comfy and practical. if anyobes giving them away ill have one.

Re: Next generation Fazer ?? - noggythenog - 19-10-14

it has some promise but it isn't quite there

agreed a more cool looking front screen would improve it a bit....it's like a hybrid gen 2 cross Tiger.

I think some modded ones could look pretty nifty but that photo isn't exactly inspiring but I bet it handles like a gen 2 but is more comfy and id be all for that.

That is not sports bike derived though. Plus, the styling is so samey. Name another bike that looks anything like a Fazer 6? Or a Thou for that matter!

Not looking good is it? More pics here:

I reckon if someone could mount a Fazer fairing on a naked 09 it would look a bit better.

Excuse the crappy mspaint job but I was at work.

Mr SD, you should go and work for Yamaha's design department, that looks pretty good!
