    I am more like a 34 inseam and I have no issue.I do have a Corbin seat which I believe sits you higher then the stock seat.I also have Rivco highway pegs so I do kick my legs out when I ride so that also helps.I came from a Canam Spyder and the pegs were like mid controls so I got use to my legs being more upright then stretched
    Ride it like you stole it

    I have a 32" inseam and after 14.5K miles in the stock saddle of my 6 I find the leg position just fine. My two previous bikes had froward controls with heel/toe shifters. After a slight adjustment period to the 6 I've had no problems with the transition.

    I have a 34" inseam and have kept the stock seat - the bike fits me well. I have never owned a full wing so I don't know that level of comfort, but I will say that this is the only bike I've owned that I can ride all day on the interstate and still want to go out on the town at night.

    It takes some getting used to but after a while it feels natural.

    i'm 6'4" and i find it very comfortable. I think if you are coming from a cruiser style bike like i did ( V Star 1300) it takes a while to adjust.
