These higher-specification FZ6 Fazer S2 and FZ6 S2 machines have been designed for those customers who are looking for even more style, technology and performance from their 600. Features that are exclusive to the S2 variants include a new alloy swingarm, as well as monobloc front brake calipers and class-leading instrumentation – all of which are sure to deliver a sportier and more exhilarating riding experience.
This comprehensive range of modifications elevates their performance to another level, making the impressive new FZ6 Fazer S2 and FZ6 S2 the most complete all-round packages in the important middleweight class.
New swingarm
The new S2 models are equipped with a high-specification lightweight swingarm that has been developed in association with the lightweight CF-die cast aluminium frame.
The new swingarm features a hexagonal cross-section, and is manufactured from cast and extruded aluminium in order to achieve an idealised rigidity balance. The combination of reduced unsprung weight and a revised rigidity balance – as well as new high-rigidity rear axle mounts – makes for a lighter handling feeling which enhances the sports nature of the S2 models.
High-specification one-piece monobloc front brake calipers
The FZ 600 S2 variants run with the dual 298mm front discs, but are equipped with exclusive new monobloc front brake calipers which feature a compact, light and rigid one-piece body.
This advanced system offers excellent feel, accurate control and highly effective stopping power, making the S2 models some of the best-equipped middleweights in the sports and street categories.
Aluminium repositioned passenger footrests
The new S2 models feature a slightly lower passenger footrest position for a more relaxed seating position, and they also benefit from aluminium footrests to match their higher overall specification. And for added comfort, the S2 versions are equipped with a rubber covering on the passenger footrest step.
