I am a new owner of an '06 Ultra....great great bike...I am only 5'6" 150lbs....sometimes when I park the bike I can not for the life of me move it back......I can almost flat foot the bike....I do not think a lower seat will help....so I was wondering if reverse can be added? and if it can is it alot of $$$$$
or to all the small riders out there with an Ultra....if I get a lower seat...will it help me alot pushing the bike backwards?
why do short people buy one of the biggest bikes around and then complain because they can not manuver it properly?

i would get a reverse gear if it wasn't so damn expensive!! i'm only 5'7" but i've been riding the glide for 5 years, none has been lowered. I do use my girlfriend as a pseudo-reverse she's more than happy to help out because she loves riding with me.
Become picky about your parking spot. Back into curbs. If there's a slope, make sure the back of the bike is down hill. The bike has the power, you have the brain. Use the brain to control the situation so that the bike can use the power to get you where you want to go.
I've had reverse on a BMW, it ain't all that great. I'd rather use the brain.
