Guys whats the deal with 14" rear shocks and full length exhaust? I have a Bassani RR3 full-length, will it interfere with bumping up to 14" shocks? I am running Legends 13" now but want to bump up to 14" and do +2" in the front to match.
i just installed OHLINS 159's with BBP 1" extensions on my bike that has 4" Rineharts. I just used a block of wood and hammer to increase the dent that's in the pipe. Before I did that the axle nut was hitting the pipe. I do like the idea above of adding spacers.
I'm looking at either the San Diego Customs seat (no backrest) or the Lucky Daves for my Street Glide...
i have the LD seat and just returned from a 2k mile trip. I found the seat to be comfortable up to about 6 hours on it. It's definitely not has comfortable as my old mustang touring seat, but I'd say the looks make up for that 🤣
I am assuming that you are referring to the muffler bracket under the saddlebag, correct? Is your front end suspension stock length?
correct. I shoulda specified. Yes I bend the exhaust bracket outward just a hair on the far end that runs parallel to the swing arm, where the cam bolts on.

I wonder if that could possibly be stressing out other connections in the exhaust system, like maybe at the heads. I am just a bug and over-think these things.

It absolutely does. I had to reweld the mounting tab under the tranny side door cover. Not a big deal or big job, but still a job.
Here are some pictures of my ride after the upgrades I have done this summer. I'm going to do a full review on the new suspension upgrades when I get a chance. Upgrades are as follows
30mm Ohlins front end 2.5" over from BBP
Ohlins 159 with BBP 1" extension
LD seat
FXR 12" Motorwitch bars
