It's great for piggyback riding.

He rides it all over the place. The first picture is at Lake of the Ozarks, 2+ hours away. Actually a nice guy.

Here he is riding. I'd say he's about 6'4", been a while since I've seen him. I don't know how tall those bars are. I'll ask the guy in the piggy back pic and see if he knows. He can just touch the throttle with his fingertips. The bike has a open primary and jockey shift. He's been riding it for years.

I've seen pics of him over 7-8 yrs ago when searching ape hanger for the sportster I had and seen pics of him
