HELLO ALL, I'm an old harley guy who recently discovered the ctx1300 and I'm pretty sure I want one. My problem is there are none locally to check out. Any input about comfort/fitment for big guys would be appreciated. I'm 6'1 270 and currently ride a roadglide. Thanks, john
I'm 6'2" 200 lbs and I LOVE this bike! It has a high center of gravity and does not scrunch up your legs. I didn't like the Goldwing for this very reason and went with the CTX. Try to find one and take it for a spin, you'll probably go home with it, no matter how far the ride is.

Hi Harley Guy. What area do you live? I’m in Pittsburgh area and ready to list my Black CTX Deluxe soon. BTW- I’ve owned 7 bikes, this is the most comfortable & best handling bike I’ve ever owned. I’m 6’, 225. Which I was 200!

Hi John. I just downgraded from an Indian Chieftain Limited. I’m 6 ft 210, 76 years old. I find the CTX comfortable with enough power. I have done lots of long trips in the past and hope to continue on the CTX. I am looking into putting on highway pegs for a little more leg stretching out.

I installed frame attached longhorn style that were packaged for a victory and I've seen similar packaged Harley. It basically gives three positions. Foot on pegs as normal, heal on pegs and toes on highway pegs, or foot on highway pegs. Doesn't get you way out front knee straight, but my hips don't like that anyway.

Hey, thanks! That is what I’m trying to figure out. Do you have the part numbers? Did you attach to the frame behind the pipes or in front of them? Any pictures?

Here is my post. Be happy to answer any questions. I know some did other similar, but I found these new old stock cheaper.
So there are option other than kuryakyn
