But they only have 2 cylinders

 

Get a bigger bike!! Everything you would have to put on a Sporty to make it comfy will end up costing you close to the same as a Superglide!

 

They're air cooled

 

i too am 6'3 about 250 and i love my nightster i tilted the handlebars out to stretch out and the forwards controls help alot. on the nightster id also recommend the mustang solo tripper seat or aftermarket seat for a bit extra room. and youll still be under the price of most other bikes except a base dyna.

 

Guys who own big twins will be jealous of you.

Oh wait......that's a good thing

 

I'm 6'2" with an 883C and have had big twins.&nbsp\\; The handling is way superior to the big twins,&nbsp\\; but you do lose a bit of comfort and space.&nbsp\\; I love my Sportster.&nbsp\\; If I was going on more than two big trips a year,&nbsp\\; I might get a big twin\\;&nbsp\\; but around town the Sporty gets it.&nbsp\\; You can get more leg room with engine guard foot rests, too.

 

Do you really want to be talked out of a Sportster? Because, I know I'm talkin blasphemy here, but there are allot of non Harley bikes that would fit you better for less money.I ride&nbsp\\; an 06 Bob which is basically a flat black Superglide and it's a decent enough bike but I hate all the money I've spent on it.Either you can buy a Sportster and modify it to fit you or get something else seriosly though, shop around.

 

I'm 6'3" and put 11700mi on in 11 months, seems to get me around just fine

 

I certainly can't talk you out of buying a Sportster cause I love them but you might want to consider a closer look at the Dyna's. You will get a few extra inches in leg room, which might be more comfortable for someone your size....and they aren't THAT much more than a top of the line 1200C depending on the model Dyna you were to choose....good luck.

 

Rent a sporty and see how it feels.&nbsp\\; Don't take are word for it
