Roland Sands has mid controls, requires open primary. Check out Ryan Shecklers bike on their site. Exile have a mid control setup for softails, email or give them a call. Another option is Damraider mid controls, can be found at Scooters Performance.

Hey guys! Here is a pic of my new Slim just purchased this past Saturday! Have a question.... I'm 5'4 with a short inseam, so I have to really stretch to get to the foot controls. Ive looked at reduced reach seats, but the only ones on the Harley website are ones with passenger seats attached, which I won't need. I know they make super reduced reach seats also, but can't find any available for the slims. Ive also checked out Mean City Cycles (they do custom seat mods) but they said they can't do a seat mod on this one because something about the foam is molded directly into the seat pan. I would have to get a whole new seat.
Any of you have any other suggestions to move me closer to the controls? I can reach them, but would feel more comfortable still being a newby with only about 1000 miles seat time (on my old bike, a Ninja 250) if I was closer to the handlebars and controls.... Don't need a lot, maybe 2 inches.

Here's my slim loaded for a weekend trip. Went from Dallas down to south Louisiana, down the Texas coast and back up. If you ever get a chance stop in Mamou, LA and go to Fred's Lounge. Great place!

Here are some updated pics of my Slim. It's always the same deal. You buy a bike for the looks without thinking of the practicality. You don't think about the passenger or how you're going to carry stuff. In hindsight I probably should have got a Heritage or maybe even a Road Glide, but I got the Slim. It's my Slim, and I do love it.
Some of you, I'm sure, will hate on it, but it really does good double duty. I hated the tall windshield so I chopped it down. I still need to figure out the rear directionals.
