Will a Road King/Electra Glide seat fit a Road Glide? (2007)
I have been looking for a seat for a 2007 Road Glide I picked up (without one). I just need something to put on it. I find many for the FLH, but some vendors say the Road King / Electra Glide seat are different. I would not think so, but I wondered if anyone here knows FOR SURE.

Touring is touring. It will fit.

That was my assumption, and probably true for later models, but a couple online vendors have told me no, and I am sure they want to sell me a seat.
Maybe they are wrong, I don't know.

I put a road king seat on my Electra glide, I just had to get a filler piece for the tank console because the nose is shorter on the seat for the kings.
If its a touring seat it should bolt up but there might be slight mods to make it look right.

I'm guessing the 2007 and earlier tank console on the FLTR and Electra Glide is a little shorter than the SG or RK. Someone can confirm, but these bikes might need a trim piece for the RG and EG seats IIRC.
I think the seats will fit, it's just the seat neck might be a bit shorter on the tank. Like I said, someone can confirm.
EDIT: I think predatornut beat me to it.

When they say it wont fit, they are talking about the gap between the seat and the rear of the tank console. Harley changed the frame in 2009 so a pre 2009 seat will fit and be secure but there might be a gap at the nose of the seat.

Electra Glide/Ultra/Road Glide are all interchangeable with zero issues. 2008 and up will not fit your bike. Road King seat has a shorter nose due to different dash (speedometer on dash). it will fit but you have a gap below the dash that needs to be addressed, but it fits.
What you can't do is go the other way, all the above mentioned seats do not fit on a Road King. Good luck.
