I'm just a little over 6'1 with a medium build and have a kawa gpx250 ninja, haven't had any size problems on it so far.. infact I'd go as far to say that it's bloody comfortable for its size.

I dunno though, posture and all that.. it would be best to take a more experienced riders suggestions and go have a good long sit on some in some shops :P

Hope this helps, good luck!

are you on your learners/restricted or full?? i used to ride a 250 gsxr when i was in high school. no that i've filled out a bit (love handles and all that) i wouldnt feel comfortable riding a 250gsxr the physical size of the bike was ok but the power would lack abit (old gsxr) if the bike had a bit more grunt (which a newer one would) i would say that the 250 is fine. by the way im 6'2"
