Depending on the year there are some differences in addition to bags. But drive train, engine, and capacities are the same.

I have a ‘13 RKC. 13” shocks on mine from the factory. They are not lowered. Hard bags covered in leather, spoke wheels with tubeless whitewall tires, ABS, and security stock.

Mine is a 2014, hard bags with spoked wheels, white walls with tubes. Was supposed to have the mags but came in with the spoked wheels. They would have swapped the wheels to the mags but it looked so good with the spokes and whitewalls that I opted to keep them.
