Thanks. My bike is a 2011 and they weren't to bad to install. The only hard part and it wasn't really hard just took more time, was I had to take of the ignition coil so I can install the oxygen sensor.

No kidding. I have to be careful I don't ride to low on my suspension as well. My buddy said to me, "It's not if you scratch them, but when you scratch them, they won't be noticeable."

It will if I ride super low on my suspension. I have the Shotgun Shocks so I ride at stock height and I haven’t scraped them yet. My soul will hurt when it happens too.
