seems like nobody wants to answer your question.....
I have a V8 Rush (same chassis and pedal box to M/C Rush, unless you're talking lightweight Aluminium round tube M/C rush chassis), and a 15 stone 6 footer with long arms would fit in , albeit snugly. The Rush is a "wide body 7 roadster" , and with a few adjustments (eg. shimming the steering column further backward or forward)and with the right choice of seats, can accomodate up to ~ 20 stone 6foot 3 or 4" people. The biggest hurdle with 7's is (without meaning to be personal) the size of your feet !! The pedal box is essentially a steel Tilton balance bar brake and clutch pedal assembly and a dax fabricated throttle pedal is mounted to the right from the chassis top rail. I am a smidge over 6ft tall, long legged (but "normal" arm length) with size 9 shoes, and I have no trouble fitting in the Dax , but would think anyone with size 11+ feet may struggle to comfortably drive one - and yes I know that statement will probably bring an onslaught of Rush owners with feet of size 11 or bigger saying WRONG they can drive them without any issue.
There are a fair number of Rushes in Nottinghamshire area, so by visiting "http://forum.daxsportingclub.com" you should be able register to the forum and get a friendly Rush Owner to touch base with you, and meet up to see if you are comfortable in one.
Good luck.
