Wait, I thought the SE comp was standard before '14. I'm almost positive my '13 came with SE.

I was skeptical at first, then I talked Baker's tech support and they told me exactly what I said to the OP. That's good enough for me.

If you have Cush drive on the rear wheel, elimination of the compensator shouldn’t be a problem.
