Tank Lifts, one of those little things that make a difference!
I ran a 2" on my '11 and am running a 1.5" on my '14.

And definitely splurge on the Deluxe option.

I wish I had put the 2" on my '12....didn't think it would fit when eyeballing prior to ordering (DK was a huge help with everything, but I never asked which height I should get), but after putting in the 1.5", I see it easily would've fit. I now try to tell people (who ask my input on lifting tank) to go the full 2".
And definitely splurge on the Deluxe option.

I went with a 1.5" on my '14 because I wanted to pull the (non-stock) handlebars back toward me a bit more...plus I have stuff hanging off my bars and a 2" was a bit too much.
In most cases, if there is not a lot hanging off the bars, and they are not adjusted way back toward the rider, there will be enough clearance for 2", but it is always a good idea to check first.

Convex Sweep in 2+2 sweepers
That was one of the reasons I installed the 2+2 WIDE SWEEPERS was the convex sweep verses concave on a great many of the bagger bars 2" is no problem for a convex sweep on bagger bars.
