Default 2010 Wide Glide Owners

May go with a 2010 wide glide. My A$$ is built close to the ground. I wear a 30" inseam. Curious about comfortably reaching forward controls. Any short legged WG owners on here?

I don't have a '10, but I also have a 30" inseam and don't have any problem flat-footing my '03 WG (I'm also quite comfortable with the forward controls). If you're really worried about it, get a Dyna Low Rider....they throw in a tach for free. ;-)

My father is about that size and fell in LOVE with the way the new WG felt.


It fits him perfect.

I can't help you as I'm 6'2" with a 36" inseam. I will say that my knees have a decent bend in them when I ride my '10 WG. I do find that the seat tilts me back a bit and I actually have to lean forward slightly when I ride.

If I were short, I'd be all over the new fatboy low. That bike looks great in person. Local dealer has one in the showroom done with black slipons and black front... Really sweet looking ride. Maybe about 1200 more than the wideglide in price if that matters.
