However, I have had the N and I have had a Fatboy, and while I could flat foot the Fatboy with the badlander seat I had customized to be even lower and more narrow, pushing it around while on it could be challenging at times (like pushing it backwards up a slight incline to get out of a parking space etc.). I can pretty much just throw the N around.

I am sometimes my wife's reverse.....she's 5' 2".For some reason I thought you were taller. Dunno why.
Plum, I'm sure your wife is gonna love her Night. And I've been thinking of getting one of those "ugly" Road Glides myself.

Everyone thinks I'm taller than I am, even when they're standing right in front of me. I am the tallest short person you will ever know

I was out on a group ride and saw a gal about 5'0" riding an FL. She had a custom seat, raised boot soles and one of those air ride systems. Riding slow or in a lot she lowered the bike till it was almost dragging, and then raised it as the bike hit road speed. It was pretty trick. I don't know much about the systems but she did well with it. I think they make them for Softails too.
