I can think of at least 3 people on this board around DFW, but I'm not throwing them under the bus.
I'm capable, but barely have time to work on my own stuff.

You only need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape.
If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40.
If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

Just removed the flies on my 2012 14r. I can see what SOME guys said that its not that noticable. I also went up a tooth in the rear and i think that doing that along with 1 down in the front gets me by the lower rpm's sooo quickly i dont have time to notice the lower power without the flies. Only road ten minutes on it,it was raining, but not as much diference as i was hoping for.

Hey what can i say it was a light drizzle off and on,had to pick it up from the shop. It only rained the last 5 min. of the ride really. But still not really enough time to tell i guess. I was just expecting a lil more i guess.

GixxerJohn you'll need a lot more time to test than a short ride on damp roads. I'd say the TC system will hold it back in those conditions no matter flies in or out.
Wait until its warm and dry then do some spirited riding and I'm sure you'll say "WOW!!!" because back when I rode a 2010' 14 with the flies out I was like "WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
