....just to add to this for original question-
FZS600s don’t lend themselves to hand guards but it can be done...….a TDM or Versys for example or other bikes like them are easier as the front fairing is narrower.
So that your Fazer hand guards don’t foul the fairing when turning the bars you’ll want to buy some slim...ish hand guards as your starting point. Once you’ve fitted them and fine tuned the position - dremmel or cut any remaining part of the hand guard which makes contact with the fairing when turning the bars.
What you get in return is gloves that will dry out more quickly after riding through heavy rain. From my experience the benefits of stopping wind chill on your fingers aren't as good as one would expect but it certainly helps…..and depends how cold it is etc.
The other issue is that they change big time the styling/appearance of the Fazer but if hand guards are what you want then you have to get used to that.
