Same with the heel shifter.

If you can’t get used to it, as said, just take it off.

Yes, the '13s have that fancy throttle-by-wire. You just have to worry about clutch and brake lines, and extensions for the switches if doing taller bars.

Default American made is garbage.

Well, all you know that America manufacturing is garbage. . If Harley was made in Japan will be a different history... 0ver 100 years making motorcycles and their engineers are still high school idiots. .

I have a 2011 Road King Classic which is mechanically the same. I have put over 58,000 miles on it with not much but routine maintenance and normal wear and tear.
