If straight-line speed is your priority, the F 900 XR takes the lead. With 7 HP more than the FZ6 Fazer, it offers a more spirited ride that will be noticeable on highway overtakes or track days. When it comes to agility, the FZ6 Fazer has a clear advantage. Weighing in 5kg less than the F 900 XR, it will feel significantly easier to handle in low-speed traffic, parking maneuvers, and twisty corners. Riders with a shorter inseam should lean towards the FZ6 Fazer. Its seat height is 30mm lower than the F 900 XR, making it much easier to flat-foot at stoplights and increasing confidence during stops. Bottom Line: It's a close call. Choose the f900xr if you prefer its specific styling and ergonomics, or the fazer-600 if you want the alternative brand character.
