Default So-Lo HELP, please

I am looking at getting the So-Lo 1.5 inch drop kit for my RK Classic, however I am afraid of rubbing the fender or dragging the floorboards or kickstand. Anyone that has this installed on their ride I would like to hear from you before I make the plunge. I would also like to hear other options on lowering the back of my ride.

I have the 1.5" on my 06 EG Classic. I run about 15-20# solo, 35# 2 up and 40# loaded. I will bottom out on the severest dips. All in all I like the kit.

I had it on my eg for a little while. Would bottom out on tracks, medium bumps. Forget about riding 2 up with it. I finally went with progressive 12" shocks and could not be happier. I have that one and another one that I tried. Both are sitting in the toolbox collecting dust. When I sold the eg I just moved the shocks over.
