I recently had an unsolicited comment from a bike mechanic that I'd never met before who said my bike looked spot on for my size when I was stood by it and sat on it, contrast that with being told by my wife that she thought I looked silly sat on my fireblade as I was out of proportion with the bike.
as far as looks go, if your on it , it makes no difference, only at a stand still will it make a difference and if your tall complete control over your bike cos it seems small is only a good thing.
