When I first sat on an ST in the showroom, my knees also touched the
fairing. But when I ride it, there is plenty of room (except maybe in panic
braking stops). I'm not sure if I position myself differently when riding,
or if it was because it was not straight up (side stand). I suggest you
take out a demo bike and see if your knees still touch when you're in
motion. Besides, any excuse to ride an ST is a good one.
(Oh, and I'm 6'3" with a 35-36" inseam.)
