Mac there aint enough room for you on a train bud.
I can't agree with that. I'm bigger than he is and am completely comfortable on the Fatboy, Deuce and my Street Bob. Forward controls or highway pegs are a must. Never felt cramped on any of them.

Well I bought the WD, thanks for all the great info provided. I still love the NT but the WG seemed a better bet for the future.
My only problem so far is getting use to Highway driving , I feel with the raked out fork and no shield up front like I 'm going to fall off !That's just at 70mph and up. Also I think the only change I will make right away is the pipes; I like the Big Radius by Vance and Hines.
Once again thanks for the input and safe riding to all. Dmac
