R1 engine swap

[PaulSmith]

The costs involved in getting an 18 year old engine into a 15 year old frame (from a different bike) are not trivial, but beg the obvious question, why would you want to? If it worked, you would have a faster Fazer, but it still wouldn't be as fast as an R1 and it would cost a lot more. £2,500 will get you almost anything you want over ten years old, be it a Fazer, an R1 or something else.
