2011 zx14 Fender Elim fit a 2012 zx14 R?
I did the search after calling a few different companies and being told "No" regarding their Fender Elim kits for the 2012 14R. Muzzzy's, Speed Tactics and others have said they did not have product available for the 2012 model yet. I'm thinking they are just not sure yet and don't want to ship something that may not fit. I can't see anyway however that they shouldn't be exactly the same. I'm sure someone has already done this and I could use some direction.
Thanks!

I bolted on one off my '07 on without issue. The undertail looks about the same to me?

It is an old $15 Ebay cheapie, but everything lined up fine.

Thanks Shane-think I'm going to go ahead and order one...not sure which yet but agree after looking at pre-12's I can't see why there would be fitment issues. Well--in fact you actually kind of confirm that I guess

When i had a tag I used 2 L brackets and drilled 2 small holes in the undertail. That way you can move it back a little and it will act like the "tail" on a tigertail

Thanks Seno. That cofirms what I suspected. I like the integration of the OEM plate light.
Think I'll order it today.

No, you can order one, but I think it sounds neutered and felt down on power a bit. Not noticeable down low, but highway speeds getting on it didn't have the kick that it usually did.

No the muzzy undertail feeds the wires through the fender like OEM, and there is a pull tie location to keep them "tidy" for lack of a better word.

Thank you sir! While I have you--Zero Gravity DB or Puig? Something else?
Ordered the Muzzy eliminator and know getting ready to order a windscreen.
Thanks for your input.

I ordered the Zero Gravity DB last night and now after looking more closely at the Puig, it seems to "look" a lot cleaner. Already have buyers remorse I may contact seller and see if I can swap the order.
