I lost my left side Hard Saddle Bag traveling down the highway the other night, on my 14 Road King, it's over $1100 to replace back to new at the Harley Dealer, does anyone know if saddle bags compatible for previous years 12-13 etc. at all compatible with the 14's?

 

To the best of my knowledge - No, Pre-14 are different than Post-14.
Have you tried CL or your local Bagger builder, everyone is going stretched and I think you can find Post-14 pretty cheap...

 

i know that you can use 2014 bags on older bikes, but it takes a little fiddling with the mounts to get it to work. not sure if you can go backwards or not. you were gonna replace both of them weren't you? not just one 14 with an older one? that would just look plain weird.

how are they coming up with $1100 for 1 bag? if worse came to worse, then you could always order the top and bottom separate for $400 msrp and then pay to have it painted and swap all the hardware over yourself.

what about your insurance? your deductible may be less than what you can find a bag for.
