You'll know if its lowered because it will look cool. :-)

 

Same here. I can scrape them at will. I've even scraped the engine guard twice. Talk about scary!

 

I scrape mine all the time. Usually around a slower tight turn, but the odd time i'll do it at speed. just means you're getting everything you can out of your turns

 

I am a very conservative rider and I scrape mine all the time.First couple times it scares you but you will get use to it.

 

I have scraped mine as well!

 

Mine's stock height and I scrape once in a while also. I call it "making it a custom"....

 

My advice to all riders who lower bikes. Do it the correct way. Do not just slam the rear end down. The geometry is screwed up which throughs the bike off. If you are going to lower it you must:
Change front springs and use heavier oil
Change rear inner spring shocks to higher thickness and coils
Change the angle of the kick stand

Then you need to remove engine guards and raise floor boards

 

To see if the rear has been lowered there will usually be a screw tht lengthens the shocks. In a Softail you ut longer shocks on to make the bike lower. Adjust it to make the shocks shorter and you may gain some lean angle. My Heritage is not lowered, but I scrape all the time. I do prefer I to the Night Train that I used to have. On that bike it was your boot heels that dragged in the corner. Now that will get your attention.
