I'm 6'4" with long legs and got a Varadero (07) after i did my CBT late last year. Really enjoying it!
The CBT was on a CG125 (must've looked like a clown!) and I'd taken a CBF125 out for a day on hire before i went shopping for a bike and the difference is really telling. Much more room, and feels really 'big' (i.e. like it's not a 125 - although i've not yet done my DAS).
I did a lot of looking round for tall people-friendly 125s and have a feeling the Vara is probably your best bet - i was always under the impression it didn't look to far away from the transalp anyway, ha!
