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
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.
