it all depends how much her feet dont touch the ground. Might just need to lower the back and not the front. I myself would do both. If you just plan to do the back I would change the shocks and stay away from the lowering brackets.

 

You will also need a lower kickstand or you can bend the one you have. I would drop it 1" in the front and 2" in the back. Use a heavier fork oil to stiffin it up if you go with a 2" drop in the front. I would also get her a badlander seat or a bare bones solo.

 

she might be able to flat foot the bike, but are you sure it won't be too heavy or too intimidating for her? I've seen few guys put their wife into a bad position.
Don't know you or your wife ..... but some food for thought?

 

Before you put her on a 650 pound bike, let her learn to ride first! Get her started on a smaller bike like a Yamaha V-Star 250 or a similar starter bike.

Let her learn on it and get her motorcycle endorsement. The 2 or 3 grand spent on the (used) bike will be money well spent. A year later you can sell and recoup most, if not all, of your money.

Better yet, if you are so inclined and situated, let her learn on a dirt bike like a Honda CRF230. There is nothing like riding the dirt to quickly master all the fundamentals of motorcycle riding and it is a lot more forgiving. 6 hours of dirt riding must at least be the equivalent of 24 hours of road riding. It's nice to learn how to handle a low side and high side get off, how to lay a bike down, how to unweight or weight the front end, etc., etc.

Just don't be in too big of a hurry to get her on a Harley. If you want to keep her around for a while and want her to be a good rider, start her out right.
