Default quick question?

ok i really like how i sit on the new wide glides and the 06's. they put my feet right where i feel really comfortable at, and the bars are perfect. my question is how much of a difference can i expect on older wideglides, in reference to the seating position and my feet. i sat on an 02 while i was there and the guy told me they were the same but they felt different to me. im 6'2 and the seating is great on those but i dont know if i want to swing the payments on a new one. any help is appreciated, thanks.

There's very little difference between 06 -later wide glides and 05-earlier. I have an 06 and have rented an 04 and an 00 while on vacation. They are all very similar ergonomically speaking. Visually, there are some differences.
