I am trying to sell my z400 and want a yfz. But i have heard that they are more for smaller riders. That could be a problem because i am 6'5 250. I was wanting to know if I would have a hard time on it because of my size.

i jsut got one. im a little under 6 foot and 200 lbs and i feel very comfortable on one. 450rs to me sit very high, higher than my z400 and thats why i chose a yfz.

i dont know u might feel really cramped. i am 6'2'' and i just got mine and i think it deffinately feels smaller than my z400 but its not too bad. i think ull just have to ride it and see how u feel.

But in your case Iam 6'3 and 210 lbs you will fell alittle crap but nothing alittle aftermarket parts cant help.

Get a plus 2 stem and your good to go. Buying a honda wont solve anything
