Chuck, I'm not answering your question regarding  pad fitment but I wouldn't use  the Lyndall's on your 14 with Brembo calipres.

I put Lyndall's on my 2005 SEEG and they were a tremendous improvement over the stock pads-no dust, no noise, and way better stopping power.

I put Lyndall's on my 2010 SEUC (with Brembo's) and they stopped worse than the stock pads.  I put the same grade Lyndall pad on the 2005 and 2010..  I wish I hadn't put them on the 2010.

With the 14, I have no brake dust, no noise, and stops great with the stock pads.  Will put stock pads on again when the time comes.

FWIW..

The 7254 is the correct number for a 2014 touring model.  However, you might want to wait for some others with the late model brakes to add their comments before making a decision.  I know some have used Lyndall gold pads instead of the Z-Plus.  And others like Boatman have indicated the stock pads are good enough as is, unlike the situation prior to the change to the Brembo brakes.

Are the pads already worn out on your 2014?  Or are you just looking to change for some other reason?

I don't know if the Rushmores have a different setup from mine, but, referencing my 2010 ABS my unsolicited recommendation is EBC HH sintered. I love 'em. No noise, as "dustless" as you can get, superior braking wet or dry, no grabbing.  Yup, I'm a fan. They make an even bigger impression on the pre-Brembo bikes.
Just my opinion.

I had a chance to play with the stock versus Lyndall pads on an earlier bike that I'd swapped a later model caliper on to.  Was doing some braking distance from 60 testing/playing.  Swapped pads (I was bored one Saturday) so as to make the comparison testing.  Got no difference I could tell in my home testing between the stock and Lyndall pads.  Have no idea if one might dust more than the other.  That's the only reason I left the Lyndall's on.  From prior experience knew the dust issue with them wasn't bad.

Email Lyndall and tell him about the responses to your question here. I went thru this in fall of 14 when I bought the 15 and he gave me a part # which I bought and I feel like the bike stops much better. I was making my hands tired with the OE pads and these have much less effort for same stopping. Maybe in my head, but I feel much safer now.
I am not a HD/Brembo fan and was getting ready to change to 6 piston Hawg Halters but the Lyndall pads made it OK and NO black dust.

I have just put these on my 15 Limited. Only done one short ride so to early to tell how they perform but did run my hand over the discs etc when I got home and there was no brake dust which I would have had with the HD ones. It was because of the dust problem that I made the change.

Do they cause your Rotors to wear faster? I am still using my original rotors and Break pads with almost 70k miles. I am due to replace them.

Thanks for all the help. I did buy a set of these
LYNDALL RACING BRAKES  BRAKE PAD 7254-ZPLUS
But after pulling the wheel to replace the tire I measured the pads and still had plenty left so i will try them when needed or at the next tire change I also don't like all the dust from the harley pads.
