Default SG or RG paintset fitted to a RK, can it be done?

I have a 2015 Road King. I want to put a Street or Road Glide paint set on my Road King. If the SG/RG paintset is also a Rushmore touring model like mine, are the parts totally interchangeable? I wouldn't be putting on a front fairing....I just want the front and rear fenders, bags, tank, and the 2 side plastic covers. Any help is most appreciated.

Yes it will fit. Your only issue would be the tank. Street glide and road glide have center fill gas caps. You would have to come up with a speedo mount.

Same bikes fender tank side covers all go right on same as most parts. Some thing like if you mess with RG faring will require a few other parts.

The tanks are not the same. The road king tank has a fuel guage and filler cap mounted on each side of the dash and the speedo in the center where the electra glide fuel door would be. Thats why i suggested that maybe the road glide tach/speedo might work but i dont know if it will with the nacelle on the road king.

Exactly what I was getting at

It will fit, but I found on my (old) SGS that when I filled the tank it would splash out. The Road king is easier to fill.

Thanks for the heads up. guys. The tank differences, and need for a mounted speedo and more, are making me think twice about this swap. This is exactly the kind of insight I was looking for.
