Hey Guys so just checking back in.Thanks again for all the input. I actuaally ended up purchasing a 2012 Iron. Got a great deal on it through the ENCS Overseas program. Brand new for $8300. I Love the bike, but honestly I see my self outgrowing it pretty fast. Throwing some zbars, and fwd controls on it this weekend to see if I can stretch out a little bit on it, because like I was worried about, it is a little cramped. Like I said, thanks again for all the input and maybe inn a few years I'll be able to afford my dyna

4 sportsters , 3 dynas, and a heritage softail later I now have another dyna. (Started at 18 , now I'm 48). I love it. Sportsters are really cool bikes if you can be comfortable riding on one. I fell in love with a 48 but couldn't get comfortable enough on it to justify buying the bike. Traded the heritage off because it was getting to heavy to muscle around as I get older. If you decide at some point your wallet will stand the dyna $ hit you will love one. Irons and Nightsters are really popular. Should be an easy sell if you ever change bikes. In the meantime enjoy your bike!!

My first bike was this WG. I definitely am happy with the forward controls. I'm only 6' even but the bike is a little high. I can stand flat footed but first order of business is to have it lowered a bit. Any opinions?
