the blade is a much more lean forward position so would effect back more than legs. at least i found the blade fairly roomy for legs, it was tank shape and my back that caused me issues.
I dont have measure ments to hand but i would have thought a raised rear would give greater leg room, i raised mine and there was a marked differance in seat to floor hight but i didnt notice a huge amount of diff between seat and peg hight.
the blade IS a better handling machine, there is no doubt about that at all. its power delivery and comfort where the main diffs are between the two. fazer is more midrange and blade is more top revs, fazer is "ment" to be more comfortable but that will allways depend on the rider.
some ppl hate the feel of race bikes but others much prefer the way you sit in them rather than on them.
