My new-to-me '04 WG has more room than my SG. Dynas are the biggest, best secret in the Harley line. They are far and away the coolest bikes the Motor Company makes, hands down. I love m SG, but it is a barge. And I'm not the biggest guy but an SG feels cramped. Great for a tour but really blows for an everyday ride.

I am same size. Slightly pulled back the Mini apes and all is fine.
Also had a upholster add about 2" to push the reduced seat even more forward. Probably would have had ordered mid controls if I had enough experience to know the difference. But I am getting very used to the reduced reach forward controls with a heal rest.
