Any 5'2" riders on Dyna's
Wife is wanting to ride but selection is thin for a 5'2" short legger. She really doesn't like the sportster options and does like the Dyna. Dealer is going to see if a customer has a lowered front and rear Dyna and a narrow reach seat installed so she can mount the bike.
Any one have this same dilemma?

I'm 5' tall and I made my Lowrider fit. We put Progressive springs in the forks, Progressive shocks and still have the stock seat. I wear a boot with a 1 3/4" heel and I'm flatfooted with a slight bend to the knee. Perfect.

I am 5' 2". I have a Dyna Low Rider, that has had the front and rear lowered.Wearing heels helps, but doesn't address the reach factor! So I put on a lower Corbin seat, and WildOne WO504 handelbars, with a so it fits me!

What kits or exactly what are you doing to lower the front end on an 06 or later Low Rider. My wife has one and I am looking to lower the front end by a couple inches. I have already lowered the back but, can't seem to locate a lowering kit for the front end.

I am 5'2". I have a 2007 StreetBob. I had a reach seat that was great on the 883L Sporty. On the Dyna, I have been okay. Actually like the comfort of the stock seat-can ya believe it? Handlebars were merely pulled back and tightened again. I bought a new boot from ridegear.com which has a great size heel and that helps quite a bit. Other than that, I'm good.
