      An Enfield would do just fine. And so would the ZMA.

      If you are keen on buying one in the 150 segment than the CBZ extreme would be a good option. I ride one, being 6'2 and have not faced any handling issue. The side grooves accomodate the knees well.

      The P200, 180, 150 and the FZ-16 had my knees touching the handle bar times, so there.

        IMO all yammie bikes look a lil small for tall or large framed riders...

          Why not any of the FZ series bikes. They look bulky and big. Especially the Fazer should work for you unless you want the R15 particularly as a pure sports bike.

              If you like it, then just go for it! There are many people here who are 6'&some above it too. They look fine on it&feel comfy too.

                gideontony, if r15 looks small and if you don't like it then go for xtreme, the bike is quite big, else go for unicorn, importantly test ride and see if these bikes fit your taste....good luck !

                  ZMA, P220, Fazer, RE Thunder Bird, IMO would suit you.

                      exactly true these bike will suit you P220,Thunder Bird will do awesome but you said that you are Yamaha's die heart fan than fazer will be good because it looks like a R15 from front and looks macho...too from behind...
