begginer bike for tall person

i have been reading about begginer bikes and alot of the reviews dont say the size of person that the bike would be siuted for. i am 6' 2" and will probably grow more before i can afford a bike but i was wondering what would be a good bike for someone of my height.
thanks for any help

Re: begginer bike for tall person

I'm 5'10" (not too tall, but remember, I am a girl) and my first bike was a 1991 Suzuki GS500... honestly, I wasn't all that cramped up on it. My problem is I'm all leg, so I have to have enough leg room. It depends on the person. You'll have to sit on bikes and see what "fits".

Re: begginer bike for tall person

airhog is those planes that you pump up with air and the pressure runs a piston that runs a propeller.. they are a blast... they now make them R/C.. but ours wasnt that nice

this is more like the one we destroyed
