Default progressive 412's with full cover

Hi,
Has anyone fitted progressive 412's with the full cover on a 2010 Street Bob.I've heard there may be an issue with the cover coming into contact with the swing arm.I can't think how but I don't want to pay for these then find I've wasted my money.
Any advice is welcome.

I have Progressive 412 chrome full cover rear shocks on my 09 Street Bob and they fit perfect with no issues whatsoever.

Just FYI lower than stock progressives will give you a VERY stiff ride. I have prog 440's 11.5 as opposed to 12" and every pothole is a new adventure in discomfort. My revised opinion prog. shocks suck. Have your origs powdered you'll save $$ and have a better ride. JMO
