Default What would you do?

I would like to buy the S2000 and would buy one in a second but there is one little problem. The steering wheel rubs against my left leg. It doesn't cause any steering issues but I'm wondering if it's a deal breaker. Anyone else have this problem? What do you think?
I'm 6'2 and the seat is all the way back.

Have your left leg shortened, it will be worth it !! Honestly, I am 6'2 and 220 lbs and have no problems with my legs rubbing. The only issue I have is that I can't see too well if I am the first at a light.

That's odd, I'm 6'3" with a 34" inseam and have no problems with the wheel. I wouldn't complain if it had a tilt/telescope function, but it's is an OK spot for me.

You aren't wearing those biker boots are you?

Certainly not an issue for me at 5'5"! The S fits me like a glove and I've heard the same time and time again from owners over 6'!
Where there's a will there's a way. Buy the S!
