Just moving from a scooter and fell in love with the Roamer . Feels ok at first blush but wondering about longer rides. Any taller riders out there have a view for this novice? The V11 is definitely too tight
Much appreciated

V9 Roamer too tight a fit for someone 6/2" with 34" inseam?

I only took the Bobber ,wich has the same frame, for a testride once and i liked the riding position. Very comftable and upright I,m 1,83 meters tall.
V11? Guessing you mean V7 II?
I've had one person rent my V9 that was your height, and several that were taller on the V7 II. None of the riders complained about cramped riding, so up to you as to which riding position you like. I am in the middle of converting my V9 to a V7 layout including tank, which is do-able, just not cheap. Hope that helps some.
There are always the Buell footpegs to try and drop the peg height an inch for more leg room.
I have been riding the girlfiend's Kawasaki Ninja250R for a bit and that is the only change I would need to ride it daily. Surprising since I am also 6'2" with 34" inseam

Yes thank you . There are always adjustments that can be made to bikes: lowering foot pegs, changing seats and adding padding and putting spacers in handlebar risers.
On this bike though clearance from foot peg to ground is already quite low
