I also had a problem getting the right side on and off. Interesting as I have the same type and color as Purpledeuce has.

I had no issues with the install of mine. I went with them because of price. They are loud enough for me and have just enough bark. I don't want something super loud for touring. I can still hear the stereo just fine too. I think you can't go wrong for the price.

Where are you purchasing for $300, I'm thinking i may order a pair.

Red, did you powder coat your heat shields to match the mat NH's or buy new heatshields?

I put them on my SGS and love them! I think they are great for the price and I have had no issues with them after 5k miles so far.
