I was surprised to discover my "almost new" Low Rider already had one of those installed - so I've never actually ridden a Low Rider with the stock shock. Mine is the stock length by the model number. Will be curious to read your ride report after you get that one installed.

Default Flush mount gas cap set for a lowrider

I just noticed on the Harley website that they now list a flush mount gas cap kit for the lowrider. Hopefully this flush mount gas cap will not rattle like the stock gas cap.

Default Recently bought from Nick at Laidlaws Harley!

All of the mods were done prior to me buying the bike.

Almost everything on the bike powder-coated black.
Quarter fairing
Stage 4
13.5” Race tech rear shock
2017 Lowrider s bars and risers

some things I am going to change:

taller bars (I don’t know if I’m going to go T-bar or just get taller risers for the current bars)
forward controls
Bags of some sort.

Friday I had Harley dealer come pick up the Lowrider. Battery light came on, wouldn't start. I'll update when they notify me of what was the cause. Over the phone, the tech said it sounded like the voltage regulator. I checked all cables, etc.

Congrats on the new scooter, Travis. Looks beautiful!

Is that a Cobra pipe?

It was the voltage regulator, supposed to be ready now.
