    Don't you need some sort of replacement for the little inserts too?

    I think you need the mounting hardware. $$$$

    If you have a Deluxe then you don't need anything beyond what is included. If you do not have a deluxe then you need the kit that includes the replacement filler plates and the mounting brackets (same thing the backrest mounts to)

    You would need to drill the four holes to mount the rack unless you buy the replacement filler pieces that have the holes drilled already.

    Yup.

    Kit looks like this:

    OR, you can buy these and drill holes in your OEM plates:

    I'm unclear George, does the BikeMP3 include all the hardware needed for a standard installation? If so, it is definitely the way to go. I was just trying to figure out if that ebay auction was a deal. Ultimately, what I'd like is to figure out tie down points so I can sling a bag over the back seat pillion since it won't be put to any other use.

    That's a good question; I'm not clear on what hardware the BikeMP3 rack comes with.

    I just wanted to make sure you were aware of it as an option. I think this is a fantastic item; the OEM rack is just too tiny IMO.
