You can definately ride a 250... I'm 6'0 myself and I enjoy riding it. I actually have an ex250 track bike.
Hell, I know a 6'3, 240 pounds track rider that uses a 250 as well and he constantly smokes me as well as a few other 'experienced' riders at the track with faster bikes.
Well, at least you're staying away from the 1000 for now. When you're more confident and increase your riding capabilities, then you can get the bigger bike.
