Agree! I got the sporty for my first bike because I'm short and only weigh 105 pounds,and I have to be very careful backing it up. It's just too top heavy. The last time I tried I ended up dumping it in my mother's driveway, which just impressed the heck out of her. I'm eyeing a Dyna for my next bike.
lol...I know what you mean! I was always having to pick mine up. Luckily, I had "crash bars" on mine, so it didn't damage my bike. I've got 5 lbs. on you, and I'm short, too. When I got my Fatboy, my mechanic lowered my bike 1" and it was perfect. I can even sit on it without my hands on the handlebars because of the center of gravity of the tank.
A girl that I worked with at the Harley shop was short, too, and one day she came into work with her front brake handle in her hand. She dropped her bike and broke it off. LOL You'll love the Dyna, no matter which model you get. :)
Yes it is, but once you learn the to use the weight to your advantage, it makes taking corners a real blast. I never chopped my Sporty, I put dog bones with short bars and left it stock. I was skinny too, when I bought mine. I weighed 145#. But I did learn to cope and I had lots of experience from my other bikes. I never dropped mine (when someone was looking).
