Default Accutronix forward controls

Im looking at Accutronix forward controls ( tribal). They look very sweet. My question is are the 3" extendeds FC103-XL gonna hit the front fender of my 96 FATBOY? Also they have a standard FC103-SL that are 1" extended will these work? The problem i have now is that my legs are bunched up with stock controls and floorboards. Will a 1" extended be enough to ride comfortable? Im 5'11 with a 34' inch iseam

One inch should be fine. My brother-in-law went with a different seat instead of controls. He's 6' and the extra inch that he got wasall he needed. Maybe think about 1" extensions and a low profile seat???

I installed accutronix forward controls on my previous bike, 1300VTX, they were very sweet. I ran into a little problem on my install and had to call tech support, they were extremely helpful. I would someday love to have a set on my Train.
