What is your bike? 14"'s need brackets to raise the front fender, earlier bikes do not.

Yeah. me too. My buddies 14 has been at the dealer for two weeks for recalls. And ti sat for a month at first as there were other issues. All in all I've seen him ride it twice in many months.

Lol... I I tried to trade my 13' when the 14's came available....... The trade presented itself in a "prison revenge" form...... Walked away completely butt hurt!

Oh..... Don't get me wrong! I own my bike free and clear....... If they'd give me a reasonable trade...... I'd have a 14' SGS without even batting an eye....... Touch screen stereo! Hells yes!

Running stock rotors with Ness G3 21" on my '09, same as '13. Just slotted rear mounting holes on stock SG fender for tire clearance.
