I believe the OP is asking about what's usually referred to as "Forward Mids." I don't know the answer 100%, but I thought that is what's standard on late model Low Riders...

2014 - 2017 Low Riders and 2016 - 2017 Low Rider S have the "Further Forward" Mid controls from the factory.

That diagram from HD above is horrible by the way. Misspelled the word further and two dimensions are labeled as 2.08" when they are clearly different dimensions.
