With the 2012/13 bike having a larger intake over the 11 bikes can the 12 intake fit a 2011.???? Also are the air box the same or different.???? Anyone know if part numbers changed on air filters aswell..?????? Cheers
 
The air intake between the lights is the same.Presumably,the hole in the frame is bigger.I will be removing my tank shortly so can possibly tell you more then.


As they modified the throttle spring area,I doubt the '12 airbox will fit because clearance to the throttle bodies is very tight.
 
AFAIK it's a 20% improvement, so could be they smoothed around the headstock etc to increase the flow into the engine, would be good to see pictures of what a 2012 is like! :)
