Hi gang, I'm need'n a "dedicated" carver... I'm 6'4" 260, Blessed w/ long waist and orangatan arms, but not super long legs(34"). Clipons, still comfy for this 49yr yeti... Got one (954) and are tall, out there???? Hows it fit????? different ergo's, on any years???? or would adjust rearsets, cover it. What year 954's, are "best". Thanks for the insights!!!!!!!!! Clean and free, Ripp'n

I'm 6'8" and 250 lbs... I love the fit on my 954... its a 02 and I have no problems with anything reguarding fit, shifting, or tucking at 150!

I'm 6' with about a 32 inch inseam on a good day. I sit waaaaaay up on the bike normally. Then again, my boys take a beating when I go over a big bump, so maybe I should move back a bit....

i'm 6'8" and about 200 lbs. (and 36" inseam) the 954 is pretty comfortable. my knees hit the fairings on either side, which is kinda annoying. the only bike more comfortable for my tall lanky *** is my superhawk (without fairings, so my knees dont rub anything)

I am an "average" height 5'9" and it's a little bit of a stretch to the bars for me and (which is why I posted the search for heli bars)...You should be perfect for it.
