Default dyna fat bob spec question

I am hoping someone can help or possibly measure for me. I have a 2009 FAT BOB and it is in the shop getting bars put on. I found a company badassglass.us that i want to order a rear fender from, but i cant find online anywhere how wide my stock rear fender so i can get mine ordered. does anyone know this measurement on the fat bob or have an 09 they could measure the fender width or width between the struts? thanks

58 looks and nobody has the answer. If you need to find out before one of the fat bob owners gets you the measurement, call the shop and ask someone to measure it for you.

If you don't get an answer by the time I get home from work, I'll measure mine and let you know.

I have an 09 FatBob and I happen to have the rear fender off for painting. I will measure the distance between the struts when I get home in a few hours and get back to you.

So I just measured the distance between the struts between the front mounting holes and again between the rear mounting holes. I was a bit surprised. The struts taper in towards the rear... The front measurement was 9 3/4 ". The rear measurement was 9 1/2". Unfortunately I don't have the fender to measure the actual fender width.

There are usually spacers between the struts and fender too so the fender will be slightly narrower than the strut to strut measurement
