So i found why my bike was disagreeing with the block off plates. . . they sent me the wrong ones :icon_palm: in the ight packaging too. here is a photo of the right ones. notice the holes and the lack of them on mine so now I need to dig up the packaging and try and return them.

 

why use the block off plates? what do you gain?

 

Just easier access, plus I already bought them, so if I can return them than great but I will settle for an exchange.
