My guess would be probably & probably. Check if steering head bearings are the same.
Check overall length, a little shorter would be OK, what's the speedo pick up like?
What spacings are the caliper brackets, will they take blue or gold pot R1, R6 calipers.
Is the axle size of the YZF wheel the same as the Fazer?

I tried a 96 TRX850 front end on the front of mine & that fitted no problems, it was a little longer than the RZ so I just dropped the tubes through the triples, until the desired height was reached.
