Had one on my Tiger 1050.  Very pleased.
Got a pair for my Jackal but not installed yet.  They are too wide for the national Cycle saddlebag mounts.  Need to fab some stand-off's for the brackets and it's way too cold right now.

The spring retainer on the right side bottom hits the gear box.  The shock has to be shimmed out at the bottom and top.  The set I bought appear to have lots of "sticktion".  I removed the rubber bushings and replaced them with swivel eye bearings.  The still seam to stick on the piston rod.

I have them installed on my V7ii and have had no issues over ~5k miles, great improvement over stock, especially dampening

I have not regret that I bought them. They work well on my V7 II
