Do shogun sliders get in the way of carb removal?

So I'm in the midst of a round of upgrades to my bike.

In hand is my set of "after the horses have bolted" Shogun frame sliders.

On the way are a used AreaP exhaust, a K&N filter and a jet kit.

I'm going to be ripping into the bike this weekend and I have a question:

Do the Shogun sliders cause problems with removing the carbs and/or working with them still installed?

I'd hate to install the sliders first and find out after the fact (and after I've installed/stretched the special bolts) that I need to take them off to get at the carbs.

They make it hard(er) to adjust synchronization and idle mixture, but other than that, they don't make it hard to pull the carb. I adjusted the mixtures with them on, so it is doable. Just harder with less space to reach in.

A "MOS" and a ratcheting right angle wrench with driver bits will take care of you. See my build thread pics.. think some of that in there.

A Milwaukee Offset Screwdriver... This little gem makes working on the carbs while mounted on the bike much easier. Around $20 at Home Depot. The thumb bracket can be rotated or removed completely, the socket is magnetic so no dropping bits...
