Which Harley??
I sat on every Harley in the store. Thought I was going to fall in love with a Road King but I felt weird on it.
Sat on an Electraglide and just perfect. I felt bowlegged on the Road King, a little better on a Fat Boy but Electraglide was right where I wanted to be. Is there something like an inseam measurement for pants as related to a motorcycle? I wear a pant length of 33 or 34 inches. No idea what the inseam would be, but Is the Electraglide/Roadglide the longest between the seat and footpegs?

get the Electra Glide. IIRC, a few guys also recommended that here: https://www.hdforums.com/forum/new-m...uld-i-buy.html
Not 100% sure but the DYNAs will give you the most stretch from seat to pegs.

It's "funny" but we often "think" we know what we want..... then we sit on a few bikes....
as a general rule.... the pant leg length IS the "inseam"
The EGS/EGC/Ultra, and Road Glige all have the same seat height.... the RG has a different seat.... whichever "feels" right to YOU.... is the right bike
but I wouldn't get a Road Glide.... they're FUGLY, and are known to make children cry.....
