So I have an opportunity of getting a great deal on a complete Police seat set up

It is off of a 2012 FLHP and the question I have is will bolt on/fit on my '14 Road King

Thanks

 

In 2012 HD still used the air spring & air tank on the police seat. The 2014 uses an adjustable spring - no air lines or tank. You can check part numbers here:

Thanks for the link - very well explained

2 questions then if I keep going

1 - will the seat pan etc fit

2 - can I swap out the pneumatics with the shock

 

It looks like the front bracket, the plastic frame cover (Fairing Police Seat) and the seat are the same part numbers. I THINK people have mentioned that the air spring can be replaced by the new adj. spring. Try a search, I know there are more threads about the solo / police seats. Good luck.

 

Thanks Will keep looking with the additional information you provided

 

Here's some reading for you that may answer some of your questions. (I searched "Police Seat")

Thank you very much - will definitely check them out !

 

Update - got the set up from a member on Retired Police Bike and it was from a 2012 FLHP

Direct Install - everything lined up but i did not install the air bladder set up instead I installed a Large Kong and the ride comfort is FANTASTIC

Note that the Police seat does raise the seat level a bit so it may not be for everyone - but if you can deal with the higher seat height it is the most comfortable seat I have had on ANY bike own

Looks good. Enjoy the ride.

 

I just did 17 hrs. on mine yesterday. That seat, is by far, the most comfortable seat you can buy. You will definitely need a tall windshield now though.
