Just wondering what the average height of a R12R owner is. Also mention if you fiddled with the suspension or not.

I am 5'6" / 167cm. No changes to the suspension, though a low seat by Sargent helps alot.

Edit: I think a Dyna Lowrider is a Harley of some sort.

Better question - what size are you (height, inseam).. we might be better able to make some suggestions that way.

6ยด3", 36" inseam, standard seat. Higher seat would probably be more comfortable. Considering the replacement..

How do you adjust the stock seat?
