Just wondering out loud???
thats another thing I need to know what years are compatible and models FLH parts will fit FLT so what years would be compatible so I can narrow my search

this is what its suppose to look like from 1981 to mid 90's you need to do some fab work to put it back so you can mount the bags the rear plate mount slides into the tubes that have been cut off they are held in by rivets

I dont think so your ends are different then mine, mine are beveled yours are not? so something slipped over them not inside them? or is that a piece of tubing they welded in there? maybe im wrong

Yay I took all that junk off, only have the chrome covers, those tubes look like 91 to 96 type. And moved my plate under the tail light to give it that clean fender look. Running no rack, but your welcome to it if you decide on a tour pack mount. Pm if you do
