Thanks all. Put a few hundred miles on her this week and quickly realized I needed to make some adjustments. I'm 6'4" and the floorboards, brake pedal, and shifter are just too short and don't give me enough room.
Just ordered everything from Tall Boys Cycles - floorboard relocate kit and extended brake pedal. Next is a seat and bars..
Suggestions on seat? Had a mustang on the WG and loved it.
