I have one on my SK6, and didn't have to shorten any screws. It might have been tidier if I had, but I didn't need to (and therefore didn't bother).

It does let water in though. First ride out was in monsoon conditions, to be fair, but a notable amount of wet stuff found it's way into the rear unit. You'll probably see immediately when you fit it where the water will get in. The original undertray sits on top of (i.e. outside) the tail tidy and there are some small gaps at the sides. I tried some siliconing, but it's not 100% solved the problem. I keep looking at it to try and find a better answer, but haven't had the time to spend at it so far. Other posts on here, I think, described making some little infills for the gaps I mentioned but I can't find them from a quick search.
