Seems to me there were some bolts, and two strengthening brackets - one 
for in front of where the seat latch is, and one that goes in underneath 
from the back.

While in there, thread a couple of replacement bolts in up from the bottom 
for the rear holes, makes removing and reinstalling the rack tons easier 
in the future.  See the Mods pages on TriumphNet.com for info on that.
