Is it because of restricted leg room? Not much you can adjust there but you can rest your ankles on TOP of the pegs while crusing, if you wear boots, and get a little stretch without stopping. You also can rotate the bars forward for a little more arm room. I hook my heels on the passenger pegs for a change of seating position but that is probably not practical for long legs; might even make it worse.

Bikes in the "just a bit bigger" category include two other Zuki's: S40/LS650 and S50/VS800.
Both are kind of sport cruisers.
