ZL600 6-5" rider

[UFEliminator]

Im looking at purchasing a ZL600 but I have some questions about the seat height. Do you think it would work for a rider of my size, and is there anything that I could easily do to lower the pegs/raise the seat? I have sat on the bike and been comfortable although I'm somewhat worried about how longer trips would feel.

When you get as old as I am you cramp up in the recliner!
It all depends on you, how limber your joints are!

My wife has a ZL6, which I've ridden a lot over the years, and I'm 6'4". When I was a lot younger, I thought the bike was uncomfortable for long rides with my legs bent so tight at the knees and hips. Now, I don't think I would make it more than a few miles before I'd need to stop and stretch out ... but that's just old joints complaining. If there's any way you could try a longer than usual test ride, I suggest you do that. The ZL's are great bikes, but even the 900 and 1000 may be too cramped for long rides if you're tall. It really depends on what you find comfortable.
