Hiya Simon
You from UK?
Only guessing as you say you passed your test, guys in the US seem to be able to ride without doing a test ...
As for the riding position, I'm 6'0" and don't have problems - guys in the UK who are taller also don't mention it - possible that as you're new to the bike (and riding?) that you might just be tensing your shoulders some?
Just my £0.02 worth.
I know that when I rode the T100 I had after passing my test, I relaxed quite a lot after just a few ride outs.
Good luck and welcome to the site mate.

Holding the bars tight does not help with the shoulders, I sometimes do it, and get the pain in between the shoulder blades. Good luck and welcome to the site.
Did I mention ""DENT"
