Subframe fitment

Are the subframes the same throughout 08-16? ABS different?

 

For road bikes then the biggest give away is the battery orientation - for abs the battery is across the undertray but the none abs has the battery along the undertray.

There’s a HRC one on here that (being a track bike) doesnt have abs

Cheers. Can you swap a subframe from an abs bike to a non abs if you keep the original battery tray?

 

Don’t know to be honest, but the ABS one is a lot deeper looking at the manual than the none abs version.

 

A few places seem to advertise as 08 to 16 but other list 08 to 11 and 12 to 16

 

I think that’s a question for a dealer or someone with access to their microfiche to compare actual part numbers

 

Hi mate
Don't quote me but I think the metal side rails are the same part number (if they are the same colour).

Have a look on Fowlers website under the parts bit.

The ABS has a different plastic battery tray so I imagine you can just swap the trays over.

 

The Subframe itself the same through 08-16 no difference at all. The abs battery tray is different to non abs. Also 1 of the brackets different as rectifier bolts to that on abs models. But still fits fine.

The abs tray sits alot lower etc.
So if you getting a subframe from a abs bike, fitting it to a non abs bike is perfectly fine. Just use your non abs plastic tray and bolt on and go

 

As @vic_ster51 says.......subframe is exactly the same, only the battery/under tray is different.

 

Thanks guys, appreciated as always.

 

So I think I was concerned over nothing anyways as didn't SP bikes start from 2012?

Never thought I'd be doing this job again but hopefully having a couple of extra holes which no one will take a second look at will be worth the pain

 

SP were 2014. There subframe fits you just can’t mount rear pegs and or the brackets that replace them

 

Perfect
