To the bolt holes that used to fix the pillion???????????? |
Alantf you are pretty smart for an old retired guy. I just used the existing bolt holes for the pillion seat to mount a light steel plate with in turn was the base for mounting the trunk and it's supplied mounting plate. The trunk can be removed from it's supplied mounting plate with the push of a button. The rearmost end of the metal mounting plate was bent down to match the curvature of the fender and allow the bolt to install hassle free.
Lynda found the bike very comfy for her back and the added storage was nice with or without the soft bags. She actually had 2 more bags bungeed on top of the soft bags while we were travelling with no apparent problems due to weight or wind resistance.
