I'm 6'4" and to be honest the CBR250R does feel pretty small. I've had a seat the bike a couple of times but have yet to have a testride. Both my local dealers have demos of the bike at the moment (common practice in the UK) and I'll try to have a ride sometime in the next week or so. I didn't feel too cramped on the bike however and provided it doesn't interfere with gearchanges, then I'd put up with the small size of the bike - yes I'll look a bit daft on it but who really cares? A long testride should reveal all. All the test reports I've read are positive, sounds an excellent bike for all types of riders.

Went to my nearest Honda dealer this morning to arrange a testride. Totally understaffed, probably due to some wedding or something, so didn't get chance to arrange one. Had a seat again and am even more sure that this bike will be just fine for my height. Don't know how Honda almost always get the ergos right on their bikes, this bike is now exception. Anyway I'll try my other Honda dealer next week - I'm sure they'll be better at spotting a potential customer (I've bought 4 bikes from them, but none from my nearest dealer - I wonder why??). In summary, despite no testride it felt just fine for someone with long legs - not a lot more leg bend than my V-strom, but a less upright riding position.
