It depends. It's not the answer you want that's the way it is. There is a site called cycle-ergos or something like that where you put in your dimensions and it fits you on the bike you select from a pick list. They don't have all bikes listed but a fair number. Pretty useful. You can also alter the bar positions and seat height. The key here is knowing the seat/bar/peg relationship you like, which most of us don't but can guess kinda close.

As I get older, the more uncomfortable I'm becoming on my Concours. I find the pegs excessively high and with no alternate locations to move around, 500 mile days are getting more and more painful. I also find that as the weather gets warmer the more uncomfortable I am. Must be due to my increasingly sedentary desk-flying job.

I hate to admit it but I'm looking more and more at 250cc+ scooters and cruisers for thier easier on the legs positions. Until now it was lost upon me why cruisers were so popular, the answer was feeble old baby-boomers. One of which I am slowly becoming.
