I am 6' tall and about 275 pounds. Is a XB12R a good bike for me, or somthing along the lines of an Yamaha R6? i want to ride alot, and get decent gas mileage

I'm 5ft 10 and 200lbs and this bike is a little cramped for me on longer rides. For short rides (1 hr or less) it's ok but anything over that my legs and knees started to hurt (I'm also 32 so age may be a factor). The other issue is fuel range. The fuel capacity is small so you will be filling up alot if you plan on doing alot of riding.
