As dB says, take your time and look around, there are plenty of fazer 600's out there and there are some real bargains to be had. If your gut is telling you to walk then walk! There is always another one for sale which will be the right one for you.
Look out for common fazer problems like rear brakes being seized, holes in down pipes, soggy suspension.
Also look out for general bike things like scratches/mismatched/new/re-sprayed panels that can indicate a drop/crash. Listen for knocks from engines which can indicate imminent engine failure or high wear.
Other things like worn tyres and brake pads that will need replaced, worn chain and sprockets, other wear and tear can be a good bartering point too.
Good luck in your search.

It wouldn't be fun if it was easy, I just wish it wasn't this much fun.
