The seat I have ordered will push me back two inches, which is good for legroom but I'm afraid it will make a big stretch to the bars. I'm 6'2" but not as long in the arms.

edit. Dealer just called and said bike will be delivered this coming Wednesday, it's like Xmas in March! Just have to find a good home for the Bob now...
I like the stock bars, I'm 6'2 and always need to change something, after a few hundred mile I got used to them and don't think I will be changing them out anytime soon. Even the seat feels pretty good so far.

All I've done so far is change the exhaust before I left the dealer and switch to AMSOIL at the 1000 mile service .

Love the bike. Don't miss my FatBoy at all.

I'm also 6'2" and put a Tallboy seat on the day I bought it. It pushes me back 2 inches too. I road a couple thousand miles with the stock bars in that configuration when I replaced them with the Heritage-style bars which I pulled back. The last 25,000 miles since the switch have been ideal!

Thanks! Yeah, I like purple too. Harley calls it Psychedelic Purple. My '08 sportster color was Purple Haze.

Congrats on your new bike, nothing like a new Harley. Remember pics when you get her home.
