Forward control on Deuce
Hello, I own a Sportster but am looking to purchase a Deuce. Anybody out there 5'9" or below in height riding a Deuce. Anyone having difficulty reaching? I would test ride one but I am not finding one locally. Thanks for your help.

You may also consider getting the Mustang Solo seat as it seems to push me forward a little more. Of course, that's if you end up buying one. But how could you NOT?!?! You ride one, you'll have to have it!

I'm 5'7" 185#, 30" inseam. stock pegs/handlebars, 2000 deuce, VH staggered shortys. In my HD boots, i have no issues reaching the pegs or the ground. tennis shoes are a little thinner so slight bit more of a reach, but you should be fine.
previously i had a 2000 sporty custom 1200, it was actually a further reach than the deuce.
