I guess I might have to go to the local chinese bike dealer in my city and see what they have.

I'm 5'8 and I slide forward a couple of inches to put both feet on the ground. Some over 6 ft might have their knees and feet squeezed in to any China bike. Maybe a larger fuel injected 250cc would work better.

The larger ones might, but then I start losing the point of getting one in the first place. Plus for most of the efi models in that size range they are approaching that $3k price point, or more.

Sliding to the back of the seat might do it. The efi is better in cold weather and better for mpg. In Florida it dropped to 22deg and it started right up. Got mine fully assembled for $1899.00 plus tax 8mo ago. Saw them cheaper on line. Had to pick it up 2hrs away. Your local store may be able to ship it in if they don't have one.

I plan on stopping by there.tomorrow and talking to them. The 90mpg part is the most appealing aspect of getting one. The real question is simply how I fit. Only one way to know.

With your larger size you may not get the 90mpg but should get at least 80mpg. I drive near the malls in town with smooth roads and no hills. Only weigh 185. Good luck.
