Its going to fit, its just going to take a while to get used to it. I'm 5-10 andhave a standard bike with a 31 inch seat height and a roomy reach to the bars. Every time I ride my wife's 1200L it always feels small for the first 5 minutes, after that its ok.

I'm 5'10" and 200. My 1200c feels like it was built for me. I'm just very comfortable on it.
