I would look at the softtail deluxe as it is I am pretty sure the lowest of all the Harley's and would be comfortable for two up riding. Welcome to the Forum from new York and best of luck.

Great advise on sitting on the bike and trying to back it up! The dynas are a great bike for putting on miles.

Once I sat on a Super Glide Custom, I knew right then and there that was the bike for me and two weeks later one was sitting in my garage. But like others said, check em' out and get what YOU feel best with. I'm only 5'8" and about 150 lbs but can handle the FXDC quite easily.
