Hi all,
I found a set of dinged Jardines on auction site and im not sure if they will fit. I believe the description said up to 2011 Roadster. I asked the seller if they would fit a 2013 and the reply was "i dont know". Im assuming they will fit, but wanted to ask here before dropping $$ in them.
Thanks in advance!
 
Not that I actually believe much that Jardine has to say these days based on my recent experience, but when I contacted them about putting the same pipes on my '13 Roadster they eventually said they would fit
 
Well..I too am a new 2013 Roadster owner and Ive been scoping out the Jardine's. I got a little bonus $ from work so I called and spoke with Bruce at customer service for Super Trapp.

Some of yall may know this but for those who dont, here's what I learned.

SuperTrapp bought Jardine several months back thus the Jardine/SuperTrapp R&D Deptartment has been temporarily dismanteled trying to get everything moved over from Corona California(Jardine HQ) to Cleveland OH (SuperTrapp). That being said, Bruce informed me that they currently do NOT offer a Jardine system for a 2013 Roadster and do not expect anything until at least 2014.

He checked his parts manual and confirmed that the Jardine system was only offered up to the 2011 model.

I presume this is due to the ABS box mounted on the Roadster.

Jardine did make a system for the Roadsters that fits around the ABS box under the swingarm.
Jardine p/n 14-7904-01S for chrome. They also made a set in black ceramic.

None of the distributors have these in stock since Jardine was sold.
 
In addition to what Power Tripp said I would highly doubt that Supper Trapp will have anything ready for a roadster anytime soon. I pestered the $hit out of them for months before they finally admitted that they don't have the equipment set up to manufacture them and its not in their plans to have it set up anytime soon. I got the impression that they bought Jardine to remove a competitor from the marketplace...not so they could continue to manufacture a profitable product line.

Edit: BTW...I wouldn't piss on Jardine if they were on fire so I may be a little biased toward the negative so take the above for what its worth.
