    The Softail sit lower than the Sportster so definately stay with a Big Twin and their low center of gravity makes them really easy to raise off of the kickstand and with seat options can be made to fit her like a glove

    I know a lot of women on touring bikes…. just lower the bike by putting progressive shocks on the rear.

    really??? find yourself /her a full dressed fxr or dina , you can go big power motor, low and narrow, great handling, anywhere in price from about 7.000 to how nice do you want it..

    Heritage Softtail would be a good all around bike for her…it should be low enough for her to put her feet down plus some of the newer years have cruise control, which is nice on long rides…

    The softails controls are a lot closer than the dynas, and the softails also sit lower too so a softail would be the best option for her. Go to the dealership and have her sit on a few different ones and see which one she likes best.

    Softail classic or slim. My wife is in same spot

    Dyna low!! You can drop the suspension and get a seat for shorter people as well as get the shifter and pegs and brake pulled back. My buddy is only 5 foot 2 and he had to do all of that in order to ride. He loves it and has never looked back.

    Most of the softails have the lowest seat height , get her a bike 2007 and earlier.. they have a narrow frame.. like a deluxe or heritage… may have to get a bike and have seat replaced, suspension lowered to fit her and a new pair of riding boots..
