Cool 2010 FLHTK Stock Ergonomics for 6'2, 32" inseam, 270lbs

Would like some feedback from owners of the Ultra or FLHTK on ifI wiould be comfortable with the stock seat and bars. I'm especially worried about the handlebars as a seat is a easy swap.


Thanks

Everybody has a different opinion of Comfortable so its hard to say. Im the same size as you except 240lbs and the only upgrade I really needed was the floorboard extensions for my size 13 shoe. Eventually I went with Tallboy Seat and I love it.

Tallboy worked for me also. I need a lot of room.

I am 6'4" with 30 inch inseam and 300+ I feel comfortable with stock seat on 2010 Limited. The 2011 has and even better seat on it. The only problem I have is my knees tend to get in contact with the bars if I try to down shift while turning. If you can get the dealer to raise/tilt them a couple of inches up when buying will probably be better. Check it out on kickstand you will see. Several guys I know have had theirs raised 2" and back 2" with new bars.

Thanks all , my biggest issue would of been with the handlebars as I heard that they would a PITS to swap out. I currently have the Mustang Solo seats on my 09 RK and they seem to work fine so I probably would update to a Mustang tour seat or go with the solo ones.
