Are the hard bags on an FLD the same?

Default Are the hard bags on an FLD the same?

I want to install aftermarket lids on my Switchbacks hard bags that have provisions for rear speakers.
The ad for the handbag lids says "all Harley touring models".
Is the FLD actually a touring model?
Aren't the bags smaller?
If so, are the lids the same?
Thanks

It is a dyna
But the bags, foot boards and windshield ...
So, it's not technically a tourer?

Switchback bags are way smaller than touring bags. I'd say they won 't fit.

I thought the same thing.
I'll try to find some Switchback lids off of a wreck to play with, then.

It's a touring-lite bike.

Nothing wrong with it, it just doesn't share anything with the FLH bikes.
