I am 6'0 and 215 lbs and wanted to know if this frame is a good fit for soemone my size to ride comfortably or should I be looking for something bigger? I love the look of the bike.

Mostly weekend cruising (not super long distances) around and some back and forth to work riding.


Thanks.

 

Get yourself forward controls and you should be good to go. If you plan on doing any 2 up riding, you'll probably want to get some heavier duty springs and ride on.

 

I'm 6'0 and 185 lbs. I love my 07 bob and feel as though it fits me very well. My inseam is 34" so I was tempted to go with forward controls. But I opted to keep the mid pegs/controls and simply added highway pegs. Best of both worlds and saved $400 in the process.

I ride to work daily (25 miles). I've also taken her on a few 2,000 mile + road trips. My only long distance complaint is from the stock seat. 18,000 miles in 1 1/2 years and I'm still in love with my Dyna.

My advice: Test ride as many different bikes as you can.

Cheers,
J

 

If you're looking at a '09 you'd better change the seat before you leave the dealer. I sat on one and the seat is the second worse one that HD makes, only the Noghtster seat is worse.

 

i am 5'9 210 LOVE IT!

 

I am 6' and 230 and have forwards on my 06 Bob and have no problems except the stock seat gets a little small after about 200 miles.

 

6' - 224 and I reccomend highway pegs! just don't nod off on the highway...

 

I have a 07 Street Bob, I am 6'1'' and 230-35lbs, had to do forward controls, the bike is very comfortable. I went on a 1800 miles bike trip and had no problems.

 

I have both dyna and FLHt, if you have a ridding friend and ride 2 up, go with the FL.

 

6'1" and 220, it's great after I added the hwy pegs.
