    In regards to brake piston seal orientation there is a cupped / tapered end and a wide mouth end.

    I just did a caliper job for a friend's - owned since new- road king - which never had these serviced. and you can clearly harley davidson's factory put the wide mouth end of the seals outwards (towards the pad) and the skinner tapered end Towards the bore of the caliper on all 8 pistons on the 2x calipers.

    i am beginning to think that is actually the correct orientation.

    I have looked for a long time to find this in print/writing for any manufacturers factory service manuals and ended up with only finding people's opinions.

    I know its harley davidson but I will trust thejr judgment in this if this is how they do it from factory.
