With no heel shifter you wont be stomping the lever and will probably keep your shift shaft splines.

Good point I did not think of that. For me I am very happy. Regret now now doing this on the first HD I bought back in 08.

What's the part number for the textured black spacer used to move the front shift lever out where the rear shift lever was located?

Since I believe this is the first year with no heel shifter on the touring models, I couldn't find anywhere that gave the part number for the OEM spacer. Ronnie's Parts Finder only goes to 2019. I know there are aftermarket spacers and I know people have fabricated their own spacers.
