Fellow Honda F6B riders: I'm looking hard at the BikeMP3 rack, but it doesn't seem like it can be used with the passenger backrest that comes with the F6B Deluxe model? Is this correct?
Thank you for your continued input!

Yes, rack & backrest can be installed together. It does, in fact, use the same bolt location that mount the passenger backrest. You remove oe bolts for backrest and replace them with supplied (?) longer bolts w/spacers under rack. And it all bolts back on bike.
Note: Rack was on my bike by 1st owner, so I'm not 100% of supplied hardware, but I'll bet it is.
13 F6B DeluxeI've taken the road less traveled, now where the hell am I?
I don't buy a bike to impress other people, just me !!
+1 cargo rack (MP3) and factory passenger backrest (Deluxe model) CAN BE installed together. No problems at all.
Ride it like you stole it
I have the F6B Deluxe with passenger backrest and BikeMP3 rack. Nothing special about the rack install and the rack really looks nice on the bike.Originally Posted by Lucas

and now it comes with bolt hole covers.
I really like what Pete did in the design of this rack. I wish it had been available when I bought my bike last February. For those who bought the Honda OEM rack, I have found that attaching soft ties to the side of the skinny rack allows me to attach and secure larger luggage without having the wider rack. Once again, I would prefer Pete's offering but have found a way to use the original successfully.

Waiting for next sale or group by....Nice rackI installed mine just the other day.It is strong and fits the bike perfect.Plus I got it on a black Friday deal for $99.99 plus shipping.You

My wife gave me it for Christmas. We have the backrest and it installed perfect. Just waiting until SNOW melts in the spring to gave it a try. I think it looks nice.
I just ordered my rack! And some of those cool emblem lights for the side fairing!
Well, I ordered that rack more than10 days ago and finally called bike mp3 to find out where the heck it was only to be told they don't have any right now?! I then ordered one from Wingstuff now they are saying shipping is delayed. WTH?
