Default Width of Detachable tour pack rack

I bought a detachable tour pack rack from Craigslist but I dont have the 4 point docking hardware yet. Anyway I held it in place to see how it will sit and it seems like its not going to be wide enough. Its 10 inches between the mounting latches. Can someone tell me how wide theirs is? My bike is an 09 Road King, the guy said it fits 09-13.

Looks like the same rack I have my King Tour Pak mounted to. Fits perfect on my 09 RK.

Just measured the width on mine and it is 10”, you’re in good shape.

i had one once, that I had to PRY the ears apart to get it to fit, but it was nice & tight, so you have some fudge room.

Yeah my 03 Road King was that way. I was always nervous it was going to slip and scrape up my fender while installing it or taking it off.
