The "S" appeals to me as well but I am so in love with my silver 2019 - set up just the way I like it, that I do not want to take the hit just for the "S" differences.

Are these the ones you bought from Memphis Shades?

No, not that set. I got the new ones made for 2018-2020 Softails with the cutout for the turn signals, part number MEB7221.

It was the original Garmin Zumo 660 motorcycle mount wiring and I cut the cigarette adapter off and wired it directly to this cable so I could plug into the USB. Everything was taped and covered in a wire loom as you can see. If I was not using the GPS like for local runs, I would just leave it unplugged and tie wrapped to the uptube.

Have been looking real hard at the 2020 LR, great looking bike and what I think is the best bang for your buck. Had a 09 that I rode for 4 summers that I liked a lot, windshield & bags made for a good touring setup. In 2014 bought a RK that was an amazing bike ( although heavy) until I totaled it a few weeks back. So now thinking of going back to
something a bit lighter, thus the LR. Also looking at the Sportglide although I don't like the forward controls or the wheels.
