6'3.5 and I ride a Fat Bob. VERY Comfortable and my sales person didn't say a word to me about other bikes due to my size. I realized early on that the Sporty's were a bit small for me, but nobody said I shouldn't get a 'Bob.
Peace,

RE: Tall People and Dyna's
I am rarely surprised at the utter nonsense coming out of most stealerships nowadays. It's pathetic ... truly pathetic. I don't patronize HD stealerships unless it is an absolute necessity for just this reason. Most lack the barest minimum of integrity.
6'1" on an FXDC shifting with my heel on mid controls. Comfy enough for all day hops WITH the old lady, too!

I'm not over 6' or even close, but my cousin is around 6'2".
We "traded" bikes for a ride a couple months ago. I rode his Road King Standard and he rode my Low Rider with forward controls and higher handlebars.
He looked fine on my Low Rider and said that he liked the way it felt.
