Default fatboy lo bib specs

Hey Guy's was wondering if anyone could post the specs for a fender bib. How far the hole's are apart and the width of the bib needs to be. I am stuck here in the sandbox and got a local that does some leather work and thought it might be cool to get a custom one made here. Thanks for any help you can give me.

You might want to make it wider than on a deluxe for a fatboy with the 200 tire as the fender is wider. No newer fatboy's here in house right now.

Thanks BOBBER, I went to Mustangs site but they just had the length and width of their special bib. I was looking also for the measurment between the two bottom hole's and the top hole to attach it to the fender.

Ok bro here it is,
exactly 4 1/16" from left hole center to right hole center.
Then measuring from the center of those to holes (in between) to the back of the bib hole is 11 1/2". Keep in mind the bib is shaped like the fender, so if he takes flat measurements it could vary an 1/8" or so.

Sorry I didn't get back to you last night, wife was on PC working and I wuddin goin there if ya know what I mean.

Anyway, If you need any more info on the bib let me know.

How'd I know you were going to ask that lol. I almost typed that in this morning, but I didn't want to throw in too many measurements in the same post.

I will also let you know how far the holes are from the end of bib, cause you know thats ur next question lol.

I will get you this info today, no problem. Just be safe in the sand box!

The 2 holes closest to the seat are 1" from end of bib
The single hole closest to the brakelight is also 1" from the end.

Draw it all out like a patteren and see if my dimensions make sence to ya. You can also Private message me if you need more help and it's not a problem. I get help here all the time.
It should look like the shape in my signature pic. (I know you know that lol)
