Good job brother! I used to weigh 500lbs and got down to 204 with diet and exercise, since then I've gotten heavily involved in weight training and bodybuilding and am up to around 250, but have gained minimal fat with that weight gain.

I'm now down to 229lbs still no problem.

In my experience, any of the big twins can be modified to fit just about any size person. I am 5'5" a buck seventy five and fit comfortably on my wide glide after a couple of minimal modifications (which is the most stretched out ride straight from the factory that harley will give you). I have a friend who is 6' 375 and still fits well on the same bike modded to make it work well for him. Consider seats, handle bars, controls and their placement etc and you can get that right fit for you as an individual. Get some pix up when you get it and as you modify it out

6' and 250 and relatively comfy on my FB. Thinkin' about extended forward controls or a saddle that'll set me back and inch or so...
I would recommend True Track or some other stabilizer so the bike isn't so squirelly in the turns.
Go for the dyna, you get your $$ worth(big twin) AND have A LOT of fun!!!!!!!!!!

6'2" 228 right now. April 9th i was 254. Still got 28lbs to go... But i feel perfect on the W.G.

Weight loss is easy and i havent touched a gym yet.

Its simple.

1.) Eat cardboard for breakfast lunch and dinner Make that DIET CARDBOARD (NO SODAS)

2.) Screw the gym, have my own weights and run/jog/walk at least 15 miles a week outside. (air assault knees so my runs not quite pretty)

3.) Be miserable....very very miserable......as you watch all the people eat all the good stuff and every other commercial be about some new awesome quadruple cheeseburger with bacon and its own defibulator for when you have a heartattack!

Yeah as you can tell im just a little bitter...but got myself in to this shape, time to get out of it before its to late!

When you're shopping, don't forget.. the black ones have more HP and are considerably faster..
