I have a 2018 Road King Special. I'm looking at a stock seat off of a 2009 Electra glide classic. Any one know if the 2009 OEM seat fit on my 2018 Road king special?

Thanks in Advance

Sometimes I just go to a HD website, put in the part number(in your case the seat) and see if it's compatible.

From what I can tell, a 2014 touring and a 2010 seat are compatible?

I have heard they can, if you fabricate a tongue on the seat. No experience, never seen it that I’m aware of.

if the price is cheap enough on the seat you’re interested in, consider giving it a try.

Lol, well it was reasonable that Lisa thought you were addressing her as the OP's (pitarob) post was 6 years ago

I took my Sundowner seat off of my 2009 SG and it fit on my 2017 RGS, so I would think you should be able to do it. However the dealer said it wouldn’t.
