6'1 228 and I ride a DYNA.
seat and bar changes are all that are necessary.
Harley is the way to go. Otherwise build you own. BigDog is an overpriced billet RUB barge.

Little over 6' here and busting the scales at 235-ish.
Set-Up is everything.
My Night Train with a Le Pera solo seat and 3" extended foward controls has me all stretched out.
My arms are stretched straight out. My legs are barely bent. I'm a flying "V" when I ride my Chit.
Dont get me wrong I love me some Big Dog and Iron Horse stuff too....But any FXST series of softail bikes are gonna be easily upgraded with stuff to stretch your big *** out. Dunno about the Dynas....I sat on a street bob with mid controls once and never looked back.

Whoa dude....You sure you are 6' 1"?
You look like Grape Ape on that bike. I asked my wife to look and she laughed out loud. Nothing personal Bro....
I asked if thats what I look like on mine and she said not even.....
You will need a bike with 3" extended controls and a set of tall *** apes.....Sheese you do need a Big Dog or Iron Horse Bro. Or a van to ride on top of!!
