How big a boy are you?

I'm 5'-7" and 150 lbs. The bike is light and so am I, a good combination. I will upgrade to a RK in a few years though. I would like to keep the Sportster as a second bike and a momento of times past.
I love the bike. I do not ride with passengers on longer rides, mainly because the bike is not set up for passenger comfort. I also do not see the reason for a bigger bike when there is nothing wrong with the one I got.
Lighter than a BT, no passengers, light rider .... bike = quick.

The '01 Custom will have more legroom than most softtails. Sounds like you are ready I would get one now. I will guarantee that ridin' a sporty now is way better than wishinn for a softie.
BYW - 6'4" 230 lb - I've put about 15,000 miles on my '04 in the 20 months I have had it. Expect to tweak controls, seat & shocks - makin it yours.

With the 'cruise arms' I have installed on my Softail the legroom is increased even more, up to the point where I can extend my legs all the way out (34" inseam) and lay the heels of my boots on the pegs.
