I am 6'4". Put the Tallboy seat on. I also moved the tour pak back a couple of inches for passenger. The other thing I did was Install Khrome Werks 2+2 handlebars and that also made a huge difference. I really like the way bike feels now.

Depends on the bike. On my 2007 ElectraGlide, the sundowner is it. On my 2008 Road King, thw TallBoy fits. Both slammed 3". Go figure.

This is exactly right. I am 6'5" and 330 and the seat is ok for me, I just wish Harleys were bigger. My wife is also petite but on a hot day it still means sweaty back to sweaty..... Better than stock though.
