Will one of the TN4.900 fit in the fairing of a 14 SGS??

No Sir. You would have to mount it in the saddle bags or tour pak if you have an Ultra. That's the only thing about the TN4.900. It doesn't fit in the fairing. So many clean mounting options for the bags these days you can mount in the bags and still have plenty room to carry stuff.

Might reach out to babyboy. He's got the exact dimensions for the newer bikes. I know it doesn't fit in the fairing on 99-13 bikes. But some of these newer bikes have a little more room.

I can attest to the fact it won't fit under the hood, mine is mounted in my left bag. 08 FLHX.

It actually might fit. If u dont have deadener on the fairing where the amp might hit the fairing. I have a 6.75" amp and the deadener. My amp is 10.75" long too. Easier with jm amp tray too.

I was thinking the same thing. Looking at the dimensions it just might.
