I should figure out how to post photos -- but that would involve learning more technology. Too much for me.

The Hepco Becker universal base plate came today. Its modestly slender, cast aluminum painted black, with a plastic center insert for appearance. It fits over the stock RX3 rack with no interference, although some of the stock rack will be visible extending from under the base plate (unlike the Garage Pro base plate).

Looks to be no harder than mounting the Garage Pro base plate.

I expect that once I get the Orbit top box, it may look a bit out of proportion to the bike. And even though its supposed to hold 52 liters, I would not pack 52 liters of bricks. Its still going to use the stock back rack which is only secured by three bolts. But again, I think the additional space will be helpful for storing riding gear etc.
