I have the titled bike with HD leather covered hardbags......I am looking for guards that will bolt on, but even the folks at Black Hills HD can't find a part number. Does anyone know if the 05 FL type Softails all used the same fender support? I have been able to find the bars for an FLSTCI (mine is a FLSTSCI). I'm hoping that the "main" difference between the two is the front end. The HD parts gent thought so. Any info would be appreciated.

 

A quick check shows they use the same rear fender, rear fender supports, and passenger foot pegs..... That's a good sign that they are pretty close...

Get on the online OEM Parts finder and compare the parts the could get in the way of a straight bolt up... Like the ones I mentioned and also like OEM saddle bags & mounts etc...

Here's the OEM parts finder your bike, just toggle back and forth between your bike and the FLSTCI

Thanks for the info, I'm going to try the FLSTC ones. Found a set on e-Bay for a decent price so if I have to make some custom brackets no problem.

 

Just a follow up post.....I received the FLSTCI saddlebag bars today (quick shipping) and they looked great, and installed easily after I purchased two different bolts than what was provided (I have HD passenger floorboards installed which used up the extra length on those bolts). The left side was a tad difficult to get the bolts started but not horrible. The saddlebags are not as easy to install/remove as they were but I don't remove them often now that I don't have white walls to clean. Once again, thanks to all for the help.
