I don't think so. I think it is just the Fat Boy and maybe Breakout that have the wide tire. I could be wrong...

You're right. The 240 rear tire bikes have the wide primary, 180's have the narrow.

Interesting. I’d also like to see what the mounting hardware looks like with the bags off.

I have the LeatherPros hard bags. Here is a picture of my bike with the Sundowner seat that I'm selling in the Softail Classifieds. It shows the LeatherPro's mount without the bags on with the quick detach hardware on the bike with luggage rack mounted. I can mount the bags and get some photos if anyone is interested.

I fitted these 3.5" curved risers from Amazon on my stock handlebars. I did have to go to Fastenal and get some slightly shorter handlebar bolts (I think they were 1" bolts). They worked fine with the stock setup.
