What makes a Sportster Low, low?
I purchased a 2010 Sportster 1200 Low because I loved the feel of the bike, now that I've been riding it for about 3 months I'm realizing how stiff the ride really is as well as my legs get tired from being bent up. Is it just the seat being thin that makes the bike 'low' or is there something done to the suspension to make the bike 'low'? Also, what are some ideas or parts anyone else has used to make the ride smoother and not feel like it's bottoming out continuously?
Many thanks,
David Kelm

Thank you, I've heard the mustang seats are good as well as the sun downer seat I believe. Which air shocks or length do you recommend or prefer would be a good match?

The 13" Roadking shocks can be had cheaply on eBay.
