you can adjust the handlebars, and you can also put on taller risers to make it more comfortable. for me, however (6'3") the handlebar position on smaller bikes doesn't bug me as much as how much i have to fold my legs up to put my feet on the pegs. forward controls would take care of that problem.wallbrownfj8 wrote:Can you move the handlebars on bikes? That would seem to be he solution to a taller person riding a Rebel.
hmmm.... a rebel with ape hangers and forward controls? that'd be interesting to see

I have the eliminator...it's not as slow as you people would think.
The only thing that will kill ya on it is if you are really tall or big, it will get kinda cramped. The MSF i took had a Rebel, a GZ250, and a Rebel.
I, of course, rode the Eliminator in the MSF.
My bike gets about 80 MPG, and i've been about 68 on it top-speed.
I put about $5 in it everyweek for gas!
