yeh bolts right up. you have to remove the seat, tank, fairings, and airbox to get to it. then its plug and play.

No you dont.
You can almost get it from under ... what prevents that from happening is mainly the lack of ground clearance.
So you park the bike on a concrete block and weight down the front. Unbolt both the shock bolts and the center linkage bolt.
Heck take off the linkage and shave it where the clevise goes, just in case.
Anyway loose linkage will let the shock drop out the bottom.

Yes the linkage bolts will be F^(king tight, as will the shock bolts and they are the self locking type, so you better not venture into this without an air wrench on hand, or atleast a strong helper. Or you could take it to a shop, have them loosen it 1/2 thread and ride it home, then you could just take it all off and replace it.

Cool.
