The Fazer 600 was a huge success for Yamaha. And a great tool for steady commuters and budget stunters alike. Now it's been overhauled for 2004. With lower emissions and some smart new technology. Big Al went to Austria to see if the new Fazer still, god forgive us, stuns.

The old Fazer 600 was great, practical, fun and cheap - but you tell that to the bureaucrats. Yamaha's new Fazer FZ6 has a lot to live up to, and to make life difficult we gave it an R6 to chase!
