Yup, very familar. There is kit you can get from TRF or a guy called
Dean Houston in Florida that fits in there perfectly to box all the mount
points. Cheaper to get it through Dean. (I think he may, but not sure,
provide the pieces to TRF. Or did at one time.) Dean's number is on the
Central Florida Triumph Register's Home Page under sales and service. A
decent metal worker should be able to do it too. Just make sure they
leave breathing holes in the thing.
