I fitted one to a sk2 model to ao it i removed the rider and pillion seats, the seat cowl then the bracket fit in to the rear sub frame.
The mono rack is fixed to the bike by two bolts into these brackets and two into the rear foot pegs.
Hope this helps sorry no pics.

Ask "jonboy" for topbox tips

(well someone had to, didn't they.)

Yeah, he is the man to speak to.

Have you got the mounting instructions? If not, send me a PM with your address and I'll send a copy to you.

All you have to do is remove all the screws/bolts holding the rear panels not forgetting the two that screw in from underneath the undertray so you are able to move the panel up and over the rear subframe. Remove both pillion foot rest assembly and just follow the instructions. Watch out for the two split parts that go into the hollow section of the subframe as they do not always fit. Just file them gently until you are just able to slide them in and out easily. What ever you do make sure they are assembled together before attempting to find out if they would fit or not as you could lose them in the subframe. You should also have some spacers and longer bolts to put back the pillion foot rest assembly. In other words just make sure you have got all the bits before starting.

Hope the above made some sense to you.

Cheers
Ben

If you look on the main part of the web-site I think there is a "how to..." there.
