Yes, that site was a good find Grahamm.
Good for comparing bikes anyway, perhaps less so for comparing riders since hip to shoulder distance and arm length also matter when calculating the amount the bike leans you forward.
The FSZ600 has a pretty upright seating position Derildo, I'm the same height and leg length as you and don't have a problem so maybe I've a longer neck or arms! Anyway, CRH's suggestion of bar risers sounds a good one (though I'd have thought rotating the bars back rather than forward would be the direction to go). Certainly worth a try before giving up on such a great bike (and a fine example of it too). :thumbup
