I want some kind of motorized vehicle to drive around my town, just for fun i don’t have to go that fast, but I am 6′5" and want to be comfortable and not looking like a dam fool on it.

I would check Piaggio
most scooters are small for height.. i prefer a big motor bike if i were u.. they are quite pricy if you are not into motorcyles
Before buying my motorcycle (I’m 6′00" and use it for commuting), I looked at a few of the larger scooters (Suzuki Burgman, Honda Silverwing, Yamaha Majesty, etc) and they are quite comparable with similar displacement motorcycles, both in size and performance. If you’re looking at in-town transportation, don’t hesitate to try out a few scooters.
Also, a full size motorcycle is pretty forgiving for all extremes in height (just make sure you sit on one before making the decision to buy). Seat height on cruisers is typically pretty low, so you may consider that before a sport bike or a dual-sport.
Limited details on your question. If your riding about town. a 50cc should do. I’m about 6’something and finding something is not easier. If your not worried about the money and want to look good. Take a look at the Italijet Dragster 50.
Or take a look "Honda" line of scooters. (I’ve been to a Honda dealer and sat on a "Metro". The seat was comfortable. But, it seems somewhat small. They have new color scheme coming out).
There a lot companies to chose from.
