I'm 6'5" with a 36" inseam. I bought a road glide last year after trying several different bikes and it's been excellent. I've made several multi-state trips without any real discomfort.
Only thing I did was put on some extended highway pegs and the HarleyGoodies floorboard extensions for my size 16 boots. The bike is as close to perfect as it can be.

Hey slowrollin,
I really have to put my 2 cents in here. You really should try my Floorboard Extensions.
In fact I'm so sure that they will ease your pain that I will send you out a kit for free to try. If you like them you can pay me the HD Forum discount rate. If you don't, I'll send you a free return shipping label along with enough money to buy a couple of beers for your trouble.
What do say?
Anytime you're ready.

Thanks for the offer Tom! I'd take you up on it but I saw a lot of good posts about your extensions last week and ordered a pair. I'll have them on by Tuesday. I'm putting them on my Heritage now but after that test ride I had yesterday, I'll be getting a Road Glide for my next bike. That was pretty comfortable. With your extensions on that, it should be darn near perfect.
Thanks for all your support guys.
Tom

I'm 6'3" and my son is 6'5". He has had an 883R and a Dyna Street Bob without and fitment complaints. He rode the Dyna from Chicago to the Arctic Circle and back in 15 days. I rode on a Buell.
I also have a Sportster, FXSTC and Ultra.
The GW is set up for small riders. If you could ride it, you can ride any HD.
