I'd not looked at other Yamaha bikes as I wanted to keep the same wheel geometry (rim width & tyre size) as I had heard that going to a R1 wheel with a 190 tyre has a minor negative effect on the bikes steering, plus you can swap existing tyres from current Fazer wheels.
I don't think there would be much in it between using R6 and FZ1 wheels and the modifications you would need to do to fit them to the fazer as things like sprocket carriers look fairly similar, pity there arn't old style breakers that you could sometimes go and measure and try parts next to each other.
Not too worried about scuffing the fazer she's a user, not a trailer queen and already has already a few marks gained in the 59K miles and 18 years she's done.
