95 Road King parts

I need some help from the Harley Gods.
I recently purchased a 1995 Road King EVO Carbed with a salvaged title. I have most everthing sorted and it's back on the road. I still have to have it inspected before I can get the registration from the DMV. THis is a budget bike and I've been buying most everything from E-bay with really good luck so far.
I would like to know if a I can use a engine bar from a current model on my bike? It seems that most HD and aftermarket parts are made for 95-96 and then 97 to present. I understand the difference between Evo and Twin Cam, but are the frames that different.
Thanks in advance for your help, Rob.

When you say engine bar I'm taking it to say the upper motor mount. There is a difference between the 95-96 mount and the newer ones. They aren't that expensive to get a new one from the dealer. There are also quite a few mounts sold through the after market suppliers, but make sure that when you do your final install you align the engine both longitudally and vertically. It makes the bike handle so much better.

Thanks VYBR8ER, it was late last night and I should have written Engine Guard. Thanks Again.
