Default RE: Long Legged Mods??

I am 6'6" tall at 235 lbs. I have an 01 FLHTCI. I used the HD extended brake for 179 bucks like an idiot and will be changing over to the ezbrake this weekend. While the HD extended brake does push the brake lever forward, my foot can still slip under it. Heard good things about the ezbrake. I also used the HD floorboard relocation kit to move my boards 2" up. I got rid of the heel shifter and used the HD extended shifter with the spacer. The spacer rattles a bit but is much more comfortable without the heel shifter. I did not like the tall boy seat because I felt like I was sitting above the bike instead of on it. I went withthe HD Badlands seat. It is almost the same as the stock seat that comes on the streetglide and allows me to sit way back, but still low. REAL comfortable for my 38" long inseam.

No kiddin' about Bubba's. Dennis sounds like a great guy who cares about quality. Has anyone used the 2 3/4" with fairings or just the 1 5/8'>?

I'm 6'1" and a moderator.
That qualifies me as a long legged mod, right?

02 FLHTCI.

If you have an ultra, take off the lowers and move your hwy pegs down low and out front. Mine are mounted that way and I can really stretch out.

I'm 6-3, 34" inseam. I've got a badlander, and it gives me a lot more leg room, but I also have a stripper seat. As much as the badlander moves you back from a stock seat, the stripper will move you back that much more. I can barely reach my highway pegs with the stripper seat on the bike. Not a lot of padding in the stripper, but what it lacks in padding, it more than makes up for in leg room.
