I read on here where some of the early Gen 3 bikes did not have the flap that is in front of the rear tire, does anybody know if that is still happening with the 2015's and on.

Niehart, I did say in front of the rear tire and thanks for the info on the ES only, its an ES that I was concerned about.

 
FWIW, I briefly considered buying the OE rubber piece for my '15A, but instead made a larger version from a cut up black trash can. Works great and the Penske is well protected, at least from back tire gunk!

My '13A did not have the flap--I had to buy one from my dealer and install it myself in the holes that were already there. Probably just a production error--can't imagine that it was left off on purpose. My '16ES came with the same flap.
