I am 6'6 and 300lbs and I really want to buy a sports bike. I have no idea the makers of the bikes or models or anything, but I want one with some power. But all the bikers I see are smaller than I am and can ride just about anything, but I can't. Are there any bikes that would be perfect for me considering my height and weight?
 
None.....sportbikes were not designed for people that tall. Plain and simple. When these companies designed the bikes, they were made for people of average size and weight. NONE were designed for someone 6'6" tall....sorry.
 
The Suzuki Katanas are nice bikes. They're fast and powerfull and sit comfortably for a tall/big person. Most of the newer street bikes are low profile, high in the back, low in the front and they make it uncomfortable to ride for most people. The Suzuki bandit is also another good one. You get the looks of a sleek sport bike and the comfortability of a cruiser.
 
get you a R1 ir a gsxr1000 or a gsxr 1300 (busa) they will pull you real good i have a R1 and im 6'1 and 245 lbs it pulls me fine........ i also am a yamaha mechanic
 
You are rather large for most sports-bikes so you may need to settle with a sports-tourer instead.
Reason I say that is because most of the STs are made to carry a load (luggage/two-up) and will handle a lot better for you.
You can modify the bike as you please to suit your riding with aftermarket products (bars, seat etc).
Good luck!
 
I would say either a Hayabusa or a ZX14 ... but for a novice rider I would definitely not recommend starting on either of these bikes.
