No tricks to mounting it. Take off the top rear shock nut and the 2 fender strut bolts on each side. You'll need to remove the saddlebags for easier access to the bolts. I'd use washers between the bolt heads and the rack.

MAKE SURE YOU PLACE A THICK TOWEL ON TOP OF YOUR REAR FENDER, just in case it gets away from you.

Greg, The Luggage rack is Fire & Steel.. The Backrest is so i assume the rack is as well......Rich

radco,i would say that it's not safe to assume that as the cobra will bolt directly to the factorf backrest also.
