I used car oil in my first proper bike... suffered massive wear on the cam tips and pitting on the rest of the lobes. Never again.
Semi-synthetic is all the Fazer really needs, you don't need to go to the expense of fully synth. As long as the engine always gets up to full temperature before being parked up you'll be fine at 8000km intervals. More frequent changes might be worthwhile if you do lots of occasional short runs which don't give it time to warm up and boil off condensation.
