Default ROAD GLIDE SEAT FIT A SG?

I was looking at a RG today at the dealer and noticed the seat was similar to my SG onlt a little larger for the passenger. It felt more comfy for the driver too. Will it directly replace the SG seat?

I think the Road King seats fit but not the RG according to the HD site.

I believe the SG dash is longer making the seat shorter. I am using the RK seat but I have the dash extension!

Just remember that the 08s , I think are all6 gallon tanks, so they're longer

Kinda irrelevant anyway. The 08's use a completely different mount. The tab is on the frame and the slot is on the seat. Completely opposite from previous years.

A RG seat will fit any of the electraglide versions, but will not fit a RK, verse the RK seat will fit any of the other touring bikes but needs the dash extension. And yes an 08 needs to have an 08 seat on it.

Depending on the year. The RG seat has a longer nose to fill the gap at the tank.
For the most part the RG SG an EG frames are the same.
I have a EG seat with an extend nose made by HD on my RG.
Talk to a good parts man he will know
