Having a cop bike can sometimes be a little tricky. That's why I thought I would summon the advice from the experts.
I have a 2009 FLHTP with a Harley Hammock touring seat. My question is: will the passenger grab rail (part #97026-09) interfere with the cop saddle bags?
Thanks everyone,
Bob.

i don't know what the difference is in the bags , but i just put that grab rail on my ultra limited and it fit fine.
The bags have a couple of outer hinges and swing away from the bike. There's a twist **** on top, affectionately called a hockey puck, that secures the lid to the bag. This allows one handed operation of opening and closing the lid. The problem with this setup is it requires additional clearances when adding the tour pak.
I went to the local Harley shop and purchased the grab rail. FYI, the saddle bag lids clear the passenger grab rail with about 3/8 inch clearance each side.
