6 foot 5 is a 50 to small?

wassup,
im in the market to buy a 50.the only problem i see is that im 6 foot 5, and heard that i might be a little to tall for a 50, is this so? Also, i was looking on ebay and saw those monster 110cc bikes, there like generic hondas, and kawis, but they look cool, and i think they are a little bigger than a 50.Also can u replace parts on those things easily? any help would be appreciated.

I actually bought that one, 2004 for 1100 with 3 rides on it with a new helmet. And I don't get free parts, I design them and machine them all myself.

Re: 6 foot 5 is a 50 to small?

I'm 6'4" and don't have a problem, can't really ride with stock bars though because they'll hit your knees, though i still can't sit on the seat, have to sit on the back of the tail, your *** will get sore but you'll get used to it. I jacked up the suspension too, which helped. I had a chance to check out one of the 110's and was actually impressed, the levers and and shifter were cheap but the rest was good. I also have an xr100 and would just go with that over the 110, the 110 are a lot more like an xr100 than a 50 size wise, which is why i didn't end up getting one.
