Default Lowered Heritage

This sounds a lot like a newbie question, but for the life of me, I honestly don't remember the answer. Just how can you tell if my Heritage softail is lowered? Is it with a lowering kit, or something you do to the shocks. I remember lowering my FLHT, but that was with a kit on the shocks. Been riding for a long long time, and I don't remember my 99 night train dragging pegs on turns lol. Maybe I'm a more aggressive rider now lol.

Well, bear in mind, too, pretty sure, that the Heritage has the worst lean angle. I scrape all the time, unless I focus on NOT doing it.

My thought too
I ran my 00 Heritage lowered for a yr or so.
Scraped on EVERYTHING. Finally, when the frame bottomed out
and moved the back wheel over, I gave up & put it back to stock
height.
(I saw stars after that one !!!)
They're too low right out of the box

If you look at the shocks under the frame there may be extensions on them if it has been lowered.

Nice Bike JB, do you know the name of the color of it, thinking on getting mine re-painted?
You said it was a 2000, could you tell me the mileage.

Thanks.
Actually, the 2000 I had was blue.
This one’s an 03 Aniv (Pearl White)
(It’s a LONG boring story)
This one has about 17K on it.
