i just finished installing the schnitz brackets and here are my thoughts:
1-i love the way it is hidden!
2- they could have spent a little more time on designing it to fit better.
3- i had to trim down one of the bolt heads for the kickstand bracket.
4- no the bottom fairing bolt must be left out, but it really is insignificant, looks fine.
5-overall, glad i bought it and fucntions 100%
just my $.02
