In Response To: Strip: Building the Yukon soon (mac mccaskie)

We are the same height but you have 25#'s on me. Inseam 34".
My Yukon is stock. It fits well but after a couple hours I need to get out and stretch. Do not put a footboard rudder control in it or --IMO-- it will feel tighter..( and hard to adjust the settings)

If you have the legs of a bicyclist it will be tighter. I don't...
Longer is not going to make it fit much better. Wider would destroy the design. Raising the fore deck could insure more room but I would consult other opinions. It would take from the clean lines.

Any where you can sit in one? I am in Southern NH. thx
