Default rear pillion seat and fender bib

Hey guys just ordered a mustang solo seat. I also ordered a rear seat for the girl and rear fender bib. Question is can to rear seat be mounted on top of the fender bib or do I have to remove it each time I put the rear seat on. Thanks.

I have the Mustang riders seat and pillion. When I am riding solo I put my Mustang fender bib on and I guess I never thought of leaving it on with the pillion on because my fender bib is studded. Not that big of a deal to change between the 2.

I was thinking about this with my Corbin and I think I will be able to mount the bid and install the seat without removing it. I say this because the bib will be under the mounting brackets so everything will be slightly raised all the way around.

I leave my fender bib on at all times. The pillion is designed as a quick detach so it makes sense to me that you shouldn't have to remove the seat to remove the bib each time you put the pillion on.

It doesn't affect the seat or the pillion fitment as far as I can tell.

I have a 2011 FLHTK but can't seem to find a fender bib specifically for that fitment. Which one did you cross-reference?

I pull my bib off because it's studded. I use it under my luggage rack when I don't have the pillion on because my fender is scratched....from the pillion

I use the Mustang short bib, I like the look of the full fender. Never have to take if off and the pillion goes on in seconds with one screw.
