Yes, and yes.
As mentioned quick attach saddle bags and windscreen. Bags are on the smaller side. Yes the bike sits taller with more ground clearance. Taller shocks and that 28* rake makes it taller. Rear turn signals are in a different location to accommodate the bags. Speedo and tach are mounted on the bars like a sporty and the convertible has a different fuel tank. 4.9 gallon tank and has only one fuel cap with a crossover tube on bottom of tank. The only gauge on the tank is a fuel gauge dead center of the tank in a panel/cowl. Also has dual disc brakes up front. Key is on right side under seat and above trans. Comes with a second set of foot rests like forward controls but does not have forward controls. It is a mid control bike.

I fill the filter about 1/4 full then install it. No mess and there's just enough oil in there to eliminate a totally "dry" start condition. Don't know if this is needed or not, but it gives me a little peace of mind.

Of course the VIN is the most reliable way to tell, with GGL after 1HD1

The convertible has dual front disc brakes plus a tach, things the Super Glide (like mine) lack...

All late EVO Dynas had the same 28* rake except the wide glide which had 32.
