HEY!!!!!!!!!! you just described me! If he has a problem with the jiffy stand have him slide forward, lift the jiffy stand then slide back. Works for me.

Exactly,......I'm 5'7, and it's not a problem...

ORIGINAL: vailtl

A guy I work with just had a street glide delivered last night.
He is a bit over weight and his legs are a bit short.
He stands about 5' 8"
He is complaining about the jiffy stand being to far forward.
He is having trouble reaching it when he first gets on.
He has not much trouble deploying it just the opposite.

Do they make and extension for jiffy stands?
Thanks

I found the $30 extension bar to work as well bringing it up as well as the necessity of putting it down. Make sure you read the directions! SLOW drill speeds in progression will save you many broken drill bits!!! Triflon every time the smoke clears is another "chalker-upper"
