Haven't done one Burt but it looks like you only need to remove the three tail-section bolts to mount the aluminum base plate and mount dealyo. I see two others to help keep those two happily joined.

You can pretty much do it in your sleep as long as you have a 10mm socket and rachet. It's very quick and easy. Just use a dab of blue locktite on the bolts to help hold them in place.

I guessed you would have used PVC cement or possibly solder.

As promised, here's the photo's of the rear rack from PCA.

glad you have a sense of humor Burt. It's valuable around here. Especially on Fridays.

I have the metal rack Givi makes for the FJR. And whatever the plastic mounting plate that goes with it. works like a champ..

I'm impressed ,you new what lead and oakem is .The only problem I had was getting the lid to close, can't read Italian or spell it either one.
