I think the question is rather "is a Blaster too small for me" - I'm 6'1" and Ive always fealt cramped on a Blaster, in fact, I bought one new for kicks back in '95 when they were having a 0% financing deal (it was the first new anything I'd ever bought). I ended up selling the bike 6 months later because it was too small for me and bought a Polaris 400L Sport (which is probably twice the size of a Blaster). No, I don't fit well on a Blaster but I can say I've always had a good time on one.

Aside from possibly feeling a bit cramped, (at 5'7" I wouldnt know!) most guys who are 6'2" tend to be too heavy for the Blaster. You didnt mention your weight, but that might make the decision even more obvious.

I too waould have to say that a blaster is to small because im only 15 yrs old 5"8 135lbs and i feel I'm not cramped but i dont have a lotta room to move around on it if you know what i mean.A 84 honda big red is even bigger than that.I'm not saying that they are a bad bike to have its just that its a little snug.It's got plenty of power but not a whole lot of bike thates why i think they are so popular,snotty engines with no weight.But it also depends on what kind of rideing your doing to,I mean that if your doing alot of trail riding its a definate no because when you are trail rideing you need a bit of room to move and if you are cramped you might hurt yourself one way or another.
Just my 2cents

It's too bad because the price is right and they are a no frills quick fun machine. However even at 5' 10" I cannot throw my 200lbs. around on this quad. It is too small and you must use a different techique ridding one.

Still fun though!!
