I only have the left side handrail. I did have to get a longer bolt to go through an extra washer, the rail, the existing washer, and into the shock mount. I have a Nat'l Cycle Pladin quick release back rest/lugage rack. The spacing from the shock bolt to attatchment point on the back rest was about 3/8" longer than the holes in the hand rail. I was able to grind the handrail holes out with a dremel enough to get a good fit.
I have no issues with the operation of the shock with the handrail installed.
I love my center stand. I hear some people say they drag too easily. My Kury road pegs touch way before the center stand. Heck, if I want to drag my knees I'll jump on the R6.
