i did mine a couple of weeks ago and took the exhaust off - muttering the whole way about japanese design! I actually thought at the time that they shouldhave done a plug in the box!!!! great minds think alike.
i also had the mutters about the bracket the shock bolts into as the lip is placed at the bottom so its hard to get a spanner/socket on. it would have been so much easier if the strengthening part ie the lip was at the top.

nicely done.
