Easy is correct about the MC Enterprises engine guard being a close fit for some of us. I purchased one from dennis kirk and test fit it onto the GZ. For me (size 10.5 wide and being 6'2") I was concerned about the shifter side. I sat on the bike and went through the motions of up and down shifting and on a few attempts felt the front of my boot hitting the bar. It was enough of a hit combine with the fact of being a new rider that I didnt want to take a chance so sent it back. I recall that the brake side didnt seem to be a problem it was more in the way I was moving my foot around from the top to bottom of the shifter pegs to up/down shift. It really is a nice engine guard for the money and wished it worked for me but, I purchased an OEM one which looks like it will not interfer (still havent installed it - santa was good to me this year).
