5'7" Here with 30" inseam. Didn't exactly win the genetic gene pool lottery when it came to height.
2006 LowRider Stock seat and suspension. Works great.

I'm slightly over 5'9" with a 31" inseam. MyWide Glide fits me nicely.

Only problem I have is that the horn vibrates my left calf while shifting. Annoying as hell. Need to move it. Bought the WG 'cause I love forward controls.

Once again, the world is designed for small people. At 6'7" I'm way to big for most bikes. My SG with 3"exteded forwards ain't so bad though. And I can teabag all you short ***** when I dunk the ball too......................
Yeah but when you're 60 you look like a giantquestion mark ! > ?
Not so " tall " now are ya ?!

I saw that too and have never served. "Former" would be a better term.
Thanks for your service Gents!

6-3 and every bike is small. Ive been 6+ since 12 years old and EVERYTHING has always been too small. Thats my life story. Cant imagine what its like for you taller guys.

6'2", 205 and my Wide Glide feels just about right, but sometimes I wish the fwds were a bit more stretched out - maybe an inch or 2. I feel big on the bike sometimes, but it just might be my perception. I'll second what LtRex said about the SoftTail - it feels small in comparison. Not sure about the overall Softy length, but the seat-to-peg distance definately feels shorter than my Wide Glide's. Again, could be me, never had the chance to measure one - just sat on a softy while I was shopping around.

You can see in my avatar pic how much my legs are bent when I ride. Knees hurt after about 400 miles....

I'm 5'7 1/2 with longer legs and my Street Bob fits perfect. Put on the highway pegs, and that helps stretch out during the rides.
BTW, sometimes I call myself former Marine, sometimes ex-Marine. I figure I served. Honorably discharged. I can call myself anything I like.
Semper Fixmarine........

I’m 5-10 with forward controls on a 07 SB.
Everything fits me just fine.
