New here. I was in the dealership looking at the RK Classic. I am fairly tall (6'5" with a 36" inseam) and I was inquiring about the extended forward controls. The sales guy told me the crash bars would have to come off if I went with the extended controls. Is this right?
I am 6'4". You might not have any probelms with the boards. Corbin makes a seat that will put you back a couple of inches. Then you can do an EZ Brake, get more room on the boards, and add some highway pegs if you're cramped. MY inseam is between 34 and 35. I am good with my Sundowner, but some times an inch makes a diference.

Is the Corbin seat you refer the Sundowner or are you referring to two different seats? Thanks for the info.
Corbin or LePera are custom seat makers and both of them will customize a seat to put you as far back as possible to give you room to stretch. I went with LePera for a custom fitted seat on my E'Glide and am very happy with the results.
EZ Brake offers extended brake pedals and shifter arms to give you mor room to stretch out on the floorboards.
