Jay -
Being even shorter - 5/7 and thats not all legs either, but the BA is a perfect fit. I actually like the forward controls, it just takes a bit of getting used to. I have done nothing to alter the height or foot set up. I changed out the bars with mini-apes, but that's cause I have some shoulder problems that the standard wide beach bars just made my arms ache.
Go for it man, you'll love it!!!!
I have about 22,000 miles in 4 years on mine, and hardly any problems. I probably don't ride as hard as some of the guys, but it gets ridden as much as my work allows me the time off and out in the fresh air.
