Congratulations! I'm sure you will love it, but I think you're more Dyna than Sportster sized. One thing I'm certain you will not love is that you'll be at the gas station every 75 miles with that (IMO) ridiculous 2.1 gallon gas can.

Too small maybe??? I need some reassurance from some tall riders.

Thanks.
If the ride felt good, I would say it's a good fit for you. With that little gas tank, you won't be going far enough to get uncomfortable.
