6'4" 230 lbs. and I love my Wide Glide. From the factory the forward controls make the difference. It's my first bike so the lighter weight seemed like a good idea to start out on. I wold love to have a bagger for my wife and I to take some longer trips on after I get some more experience but it will have to leave the dealer with forwards for me to even feel comfortable. Hopefully after a few mods the wide will be even more comfortable.

5'11" and 210 lbs, the wifey and I do lots of riding on our Street Bob, mostly highway.
Forward controls, little mud flap on front fender, saddle bags, two up seat and back rest...no complaints...well except the wind buffering behind windshield.

6'2, 230 Lbs......riser extensions, seats, bars, forward controls.....it's too easy to fit the bike to a person. My little DYNA fits GREAT!
