The guard was an easy install, the only issue was the new bracket hole for remounting the horn was a bit too small, had to be filed out slightly for the horn mounting screw to fit. Probably from the chroming process.
I wear a size 9 boot and it does interfere a bit when shifting. After a few minutes riding you get used to it, need to be very precise with where your foot is on the peg when shifting, but not a showstopper. I think though if your foot is any bigger it could be troublesome.
Right side brake pedal is no problem since you're coming down from the top. Its only when upshifting I found I was pulling up on the bar and not the shifter.
Bar itself is very nice quality, chrome is shiny and the brackets all line up precisely.
