Ultra Limited Low or Standard

I own a 2015 Ultra Limited "Low" which I bought new. (I'm 5'8" with a 29" inseam) After first riding it for a couple of months, I decided the "Low" seat design was too low and also caused some discomfort to my "boys", down there...lol. So I removed the stock "low" seat and replaced it with a stock HD standard Ultra Limited seat. The stock seat was ok but uncomfortable on long rides so it too was replaced with a Mustang seat which is perfect for me. The Mustang seat did raise me up slightly but still allows me to flat foot at stops.
As others have said, the "Low's" bars are pulled back some to accommodate a shorter rider and the stock grips are unheated and a bit thinner in diameter. Since I wanted heated grips I made that part of the deal when I first negotiated for the cycle.
Perhaps you can take a test ride at a local HD shop on a stock "Low" and decide for yourself.....but my guess is that you might find it a bit too low for your 6 foot frame. But for us, who are slightly "vertically challenged" the "low" has allowed me to feel comfortable riding a full sized touring bike and that's great!
