Mantra -
Some of the fans have blades the contact the shroud or cage, and the instructions tell you to either trim or bend the blades to prevent rubbing. Mine required no bending, and I haven't had any heat issues like I did with the stock fan. It is very easy installation, remove both lower fairings, remove the connector on the left, two bolts on the left and one in the center (between the headers) then pull the fan and shroud through the left side. Once the assembly is off, remove the three screws holding the stock fan on and replace the fan with the included washer/gasket. With fairing removal, I was done in about 40 mins. Hope this helps.
