I wouldn't/couldn't own this bike without a seat change to sit me back further an inch or two (6'2). My pegs are stock but threw on highway pegs to stretch out now and then

Thank you

Those bars are great but add some with little more height - https://www.hdforums.com/forum/dyna-...dyna-pics.html

No hijack intended OP

I'm about 5-11 and I loved my street bob. Only thing is you'll probably want forward controls. Other than that it's perfect.

I put a floorboards kit on mine...huge difference in riding comfort. I took them off twice but wasn't long before they went back on.

5'8"/175lb, 30" inseam. My hips are screaming on my 17 Street Bob after about an hour. Went to further forward mids from the Low Rider and they definitely helped but not enough. Test rode a Sundowner and Tallboy saddle yesterday. The Sundowner raised me up just enough to make the difference. Liked the further back position of the TallBoy but prefer a solo saddle with pillion so its the Sundowner for me. Unless you're very limber I suspect you'll be pretty cramped with the stock saddle and mids. Great bike though! Good luck with your fitment.
