Welcome to the CBRForum ER1C.
Your question is a good one. The answer is somewhat objective. Some taller riders feel cramped up, some don't. Its all a matter of perspective, experience, & expectations. If you're a new rider, just about any sportbike may feel small. Once you're riding for awhile, you'll get used to it. I've found that the CBR, especially earlier models like the F4i, are relatively comfortable. Also, CBRs to me anyway, tend to have more comfortable ergos compared to other popular makes.
Good to have you aboard.

Thanks all,
I will hit up the 600 forum fer sure....I have an 08 E-Glide, Had a sport bike back in the 90's (am 46) and thought about picking up a used sportbike and I know you cannot go wrong with Honda stuff....generators, cars, bikes...all last a long time.
It would be mostly a "fun" rider , commuter, something funner than the Harley but thats is my tourer fer sure...but they both have a purpose.
