Evan: For the life of me, I don't know what is wrong here. I'm just weeks away from 63, 6'2" and weigh 250 lb. Was up to 282lb before the diabetes hit. I still get on the 130 same way I did 47 years ago. Put my right foot up on platform between brake pedal and fender, left hand on steering wheel and right hand on steering shaft and up I go. I can still be in the seat ahead of most guys in their 20s. Now I realize my long legs do give me a bit of an advantage.

I have the cultivator tool bars on my 140 but never use them for a step, too slow. Time to get in shape guys.
