I'm looking to get rear saddlebag guards for my Deluxe and need your help.

Looks like there are 2 part numbers you guys are using...

49261-00a for the Heritage
49258-00a for the Springer

Can anybody tell me what the difference is among the two?

Also, do either one of those require modification for install on
a 2010 Deluxe?

 

I don't have them on my deluxe but from what I know the heritage ones have a bigger diameter tube and have more of a square or 90 deg bend on top. The springer ones have smaller diameter tube and are rounded at the top bend. Both look good in my opinion.

 

Thanks Jesse...it looks like alot of the guys are leaning towards the springer version of the rear bars. I think I'll go with that myself since I have the nostalgia bars up front.

 

I went with the Springer ones for my Deluxe.

 

I went with the Springer rear bars. They fit without any problems.

No problem just trying to be helpful.

 

picked up the springer kind yesterday...installed no problems
gotta say it doesn't look very well with the stock seat eh....
not to mention, i can't get the stock seat off now..ha

 

Saibaba- What bags did you use and why is the stock seat now not removable? I ask because I have yet to put the bags on my 2006 Deluxe but when i go with the bags, I'll also go with the guards.

I have a Corbin Solo on the Deluxe. It uses the stock grab rail but a separate mount. Rear goes on first.

I have the bars for the Heritage and after installing them I have just found out that the stock seat doesn't fit back on the bike now. Has anyone else had this issue? The top bars from the guards are right where the seat bar bolts to the bottom of the seat. :-( little upset now with this product!!!

Forgot to add I am running vance & Hines long shots without a problem. Just where the seat attaches to the rear rail is the problem!!!

 

Does anyone know if the springer saddlebag guards will fit on a 2012 Fatboy? I'm not running the stock exhaust, I have Samson Longhorns, and I already have passenger floorboards from a heritage installed.
