I have searched and found some info and leads but I need more...... I am painting a '62 FLH Blk/Wht but can't find a layout template but sure I can mask this out given some details.
Obviously I want to be as close to factory layout as possible. I have attached a marked-up pic (pic I found on this site,thx) showing areas in question.
First I need the thickness of the black space between the wing portion and the bottom stripe. Second I need the thickness of the stripe below the space.
As I don't have an original to measure I'm hoping someone here might have this info.
I have spoken to Colowrite / John P, but he doesn't have this template available. Any information will be greatly appreciated.

This is perfect! Thank you 1962FLH and Panhead rex. Great information and link to nice set of pics too.
