Hello Everyone –
This site has been very valuable to me – I have learned much over the past year. Thanks in advance everyone for any guidance you can provide.
I have a 1995 FLHT with 55Kmi. It runs like new and I plan to keep it. I am thinking about adding saddlebag guards, but it seems that most of the ones I find are for 1997 and newer models.
I would like to buy a "kit" or a complete used "takeoff", but finding this for a 1995 is tough.
Would the kits for the 1997- fit my bike? I know that 1997 represented some changes to the ElectraGlide, but I am not sure the changes impacted the bag guards.
I have been looking at these https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LH85LLG/ and similar kits, but they all list bikes 1997- and newer. I assume that they will not fit my 1995.
Can anyone recommend a kit for my 1995 FLHT?
I did find these https://www.amazon.com/dp/B014K56YUK/ and they claim to fit, but I like the style of the ones above better.
I have the parts catalog for my bike, but I am not too motivated to piece together all of the bits necessary.
Thanks everyone! Happy New Year! George
AFAIK know most will fit up
I have a 1994 RK and just bolted a much newer set on, in fact, i bolted the whole tine set from a 2015 street glide on.
Hi Thumper - thanks for the quick reply.
Turns out that the main parts that changed beginning in 1997 were:
1995 1997
49202-93 49188-97 Guard, Right
49203-93 49172-97 Guard, Left
All of the saddlebag parts aft of these were unchanged.
Thanks again.
George
At one point, the bend of the upper corner of that guard changed - to avoid the passenger's thigh coming in contact with it. That might that change and difference.
2015 bolted up to my 1995.
In fact I bolted the 2015 street glide tin, bags, and fairing on it as it was cheaper than a paint job.
