As long as you get the right one for a ‘17, yes. They’ll fit any touring bike.

After reading through the thread I am thinking I might not go the police saddle route after all. I was hoping it would be an easy swap back and forth between the police solo and my two up saddle but it sounds like it would be a pain in the rear to swap back and forth.

Thanks for posting this, you and I have the exact same bike so now I know how mine would look if I did got with a police solo saddle. BTW, what bars are those? I am running Heritage bars on my bike but yours look like they have a little more pull back to them.

Not sure of the bars. I do like them. Definitely not factory but comfortable.

I plan on buying the mustang pillion seat for my occasional trip with my wife.
