I'm 6'1" and it's fine.

I never get this conversation. It's the same frame as any other softail, and same height has the FB Lo

6' & fits perfect! The beach bars I fitted did make the bike fit me a lot better, just had a C&C seat, which i've heard will give a little more room but still waiting to try it out, due to the horrible English weather!

6' with 35" inseam so I took footboards off and put pegs on for more natural leg and foot angle.

Oh that, and more cornering clearance. Works for me. Mark H.

Kozy, the reason people say its for shorter riders is the seat, it pushes you too far forward, try a Heritage seat on a deluxe try it you'll see what I mean

I'm 5' 8" and it's perfect. When I bought it I sat on FB's Dyna's and even a bagger. None of them felt as comfy as My Deluxe. Is it Spring yet???
