Really, the CBR wouldn't cut it either?
I fly on the CBR but giant sized riders who refuse to tuck find times where the 23 hp struggles to maintain 80 into headwinds. Then you are compelled to run wide open in 4th and get 50 mpg. A Ninja650 with a custom tall seat is a sure bet for large commuters and can still bring back some decent mpg with longer gears. the NC700X with the touring windscreen can still break 70 mpg with a large rider if you can justify a new bike.
