Just a sticker... It'll be fine I went to trade school for metal fab. Making templates out of carboard is like a Zen thing for me. Next time I find some decent gauge sheet metal im either making a coffin tank or a new tunnel for a sporty tank. All with a stick welder...
Edit: what would look even cooler is taking around an inch of each side off the fxd tank to narrow it quite a bit.

Well hell; that's going to make putting those jiffy stand extensions on more drama than it needs to be; I hope it was just a fluke or there's going to be a bunch of mis-drilled jiffy stands out there in over length fork tube-land
35 - 40 ft-lbs on the bracket bolts, 18 - 22 ft-lbs on the stabilizer link bolt.
It's located in the engine section of the SM, under 'assembling motorcycle after service'...
Thanks TCC.....just found it in the book.....still learning these HD books!
Removed reflectors, adjusted bars, swapped out mid pegs for further forward mid pegs, ordered new retro tank badges and service manual for my new Street Bob. Too cold and wet to ride today!
Installed a leather swingarm bag and bracket package from Legendary Cycles, formerly known as Dead Creek Cycles of Belvidere, NJ. I bought the heavy duty Bobber Style bag which is made of very thick leather. The bag is installed using a unique system. They sandwich the back of the bag between two nicely powder coated pices of steel using three nuts, bolts and washers. Then the bag is bolted to the belt guard and the bottom shock bolt which is very solid.
The bag can be configured to your taste. I may bring it in a little closer to the fender after riding a bit. I'll have to raise the bag a little bit to clear the axle nut. No big deal. This was the first pass going right off the written instructions. Easy to read and follow instructions with photos.

I installed a moonsmaker 2 headlight tonight. I will take it for a ride Sunday night to see how it compares to stock (pretty sure itll be much better).
Just did this to my kids FXDLS.....
Order the horn bracket from a 2016 Street Bob....think its 16328-04A
Don't forget the acorn nut to hold the MM fans to the MM rubber mount P/N 7549A
The rubber mount is in the MM fan kit.
As mchad schooled me, when you remove the current FXDLS mount/stabilizer make sure the bike is up level.
I cant find the torque for the 2 bolts that go into the head and the stabilizer link in the service manual so I havent completed the installation yet. Also just hooking the fans straight to the DLC connector for power.
You guys are awesome. You even anticipated the next question I came up with - won't my engine fall over when the bracket's removed? Thanks for the info. Thanks to Mchad for the scheme. Thanks to TinCupChalice for the torque info.
I explained what I wanted to do to a HD parts guy this afternoon and ordered a bracket - the wrong one I now know after your post. He ordered one without the hole for the link bolt. Off a touring bike I guess. I'll fix that tomorrow. Many thanks all.
