Default ABS saddlebag question

Are all the ABS saddlebags on touring bikes say from 2005 to 2009 the same size and shape

If you're looking for a set of bags I'll have some for sale around mid November. I'm Triking my '08 Ultra 105th Anniversary and will have a lot of "take-offs" from the swing arm back. Keeping the Tour Pak and shocks but everything else will be sold. All in like new condition!!!

Thx, I am changing my RKC to hard bags and was wondering, kind of shopping around
and seeing whats out there, going to re-paint the bike and have hard bags painted to
match and all.
Hey retired Navy, seeing more and more trikes here, saw a little old grayed lady on
an amazing red trike, not a harley but was very nice.
Will look forward to seeing some pics when done and watch for a sale of parts.

I've got a buddy who wants to go to the hard bags also on his '09 RKC. The hard bags is the only reason I went with the RK standard cuz gotta have the hard bags and didn't want the extra expense of the switch. I use the hell out of my bags and the hard bags stand up to lots of heavy use. The leather bags look great on the RKC but don't hold quite as much stuff, aren't air tight and not quite as sturdy.
