I feel too big.
Sometimes I feel like Im just too big for my WG. Im 6'2 220lbs my Girlfriend says that I dont look funny on it but she kinda has to say that since she knows how much I love the bike. Does anyone feel like they are too big for their WG? I know its not all about how you look and its about enjoying the ride but it still kinda bothers me that in photos I look twice as big as the bike haha.

I feel you pain. I'm only 5'11 185 on Street Bob with mid controls. I feel like Im too big but people say im not....I guess it depends on how comfortable you are....and thats what really matters!

If you're too big for a WG, then I'm GARGANTUAN on my WG! I figure those that think I look funny on my bike are probably pussies anyway, and don't ride at all. Living life being concerned with what strangers think will ruin you.

My Wg is about the only thing I really feel like I fit on. Mine has 3 inch extended forward controls, factory mini apes, and C&C seat that sets me back 1 inch. When I was looking at bikes I was going to get a Sg or street bob until I sat on both of them they felt like mopeds. I'm 6'3 195.

I don't have a WG, but I'm 6'3" and 270. I like my fit on the Dyna. I would think that the WG would be better with the rake in the front end. First time I rode with o e of my buddies he said the bike fit me good.
