cool, my Street Rod has a larger frame and more leg room than the original V Rod, one of the reasons I was attracted to it besides more HP and larger fuel tank.
Well I am 6'8" and ride a 2006 Street Rod VSCR and love it!! I cant really stretch my legs out due to peg positioning but it has larger frame than regular V-Rod and after I put my 2 into D&D Pipes, screamin eagle breather and had it Dyno Tuned Woo-Hooo runs like a sportbike/cruiser Hybrid from Hell!!
Hi, I found a Night Rod that I really want. I am also 6 foot 8 and I have concerns. I have ridden other Harley's and I have a hard time with looking stupid on a lower bike. I am concerned that after a few hours my back will hurt and the controls wont work super well with my height. I was thinking about doing some riser bars, probably 6 inches or so. How would all of this look/feel? I see videos of shorter riders 6 foot or shorter, and they even look as though their back would hurt as well. Are there any customizations that I could do to save my back and the look of the bike?
I installed the 4.75 extended controls on my 2014 V-rod and it really helped out on the longer rides. It was an easy 2 hr install and I used the stock toepegs with my setup. They're a bit pricey due to the machining involved but after a couple rides it was more than worth it. https://www.alteredstatedesign.net/2012-bikes
yes you can buy ‘slayers’ four inch extensions in the US. I have them on my 2007 screamin eagle. They are brilli You can see legs stretched out!
