I recently purchased an XR caliper for my 09 Nightster and it doesn't fit! The caliper hits the wheels spokes and would take a lot of grinding to make fit. Does anyone have advice or am i missing some sort of relocation bracket that needs to adapt?

Yep. Not sure if you've heard of the XL Forum, but all of the caliper swap info can be found there.
Its been well documented that the XR caliper does not work with 19" spoke rims.
The XR calipers "barely" clear on my 19" Iron cast wheels.
EDIT: they do not work with the 21" spoke wheels. Research it on the XL Forum....
IMHO, you need to use the HD-Brembo caliper/ larger rotor combo.
