Thanks 24v, will do.
Is there anywhere that I can obtain a cross-section drawing of the 2015 stock muffler, so that I can see what I am up against before starting?
Mine are the long, chrome "Harley Classic" mufflers, not the shorter 2013/4s that have a black heat shield.

I have never seen a drawing like that, sorry. Did you change the mufflers on your bike, or is that how they come over there?

These are stock here for 2015. The 2013/4s were the short and square tipped ones with the black heat shield.
Harley make all sorts of variations for the bikes that they ship internationally for reasons known only to them.. For instance, the 2012 48 sold Stateside came with black rear shocks, but the ones here were chrome, which I found most annoying, even though the best mod I did on that bike was to fit Progressive 422s.
Their website (and I know that this may be IP-dependent, so you may not see this) says as much.

First half decent ride today!
Ok, just back from (don't laugh) a 50Km run on almost good roads.
Dare I say it but I might, just, be getting used to this bike. I say just, as I could still do with an inch or so less reach.
Ok, I can spend the cash and change the seat, but I'd like to know if anyone here has had the stock seat modified with good results? I'm thinking of some of the front packing removed and a tad more in the rear to bring me forward that inch.
On the other hand, has anyone fitted the angled spacers under the risers? Surely I could gain 1 to 1 ˝ inches doing that, no?
Any input appreciated!
