Hi and welcome Yamahafanatic. I'm an ex Blade owner and can say I don't miss it at all despite 18 years and 50,000 miles of fault free biking on it. In the Fazer 1000 section, the first thread at the top of the page answers a hell of a lot of questions for a new owner and could prove useful to you. Enjoy your Fazer you'll love it.
