thought that might happen. Reckon those with the fatter Indian Escort shockers or the thicker Spanish ones will suffer too. Is the bolt on clamp symmetrical? If not try it on upside down so that it gives more clearance?

hi the kit did hit the bgm dampers aswell but all we did was countersink the bracket and use 2 stainless m6x20mm countersunk bolts and theres loads of clearance now (thanks martinr for the suggestion) :D :D

Any pictures?
I'm not native English speaking, what do you mean with countersink and countersunk?

I am looking on either grinding the head off the screws of the bolt thing. Weld the other part on or get other dampers that are much thinner. To bad since I never had any complaints on my UNI 4S dampers.
