Yes, i'm pretty sure you will need docking hardware, from what I understand it is a couple of bolts the replace current ones in your fender struts. They have a neck that sticks out to let the sideplates lock onto them.

I think you need to relocate the rear turn signals as well. I have the same bike and did the same setup. Well worth the investment.

Let me know and I can try and find the part #'s for the hardware.

As HD4ME said, I'm pretty sure you will need to relocate the turn signals. If you get a sissy bar that is rigid mount, relocations of the turn signals isn't necessary. Consider how often you'll run without the sissy bar. I did and went with the rigid mount since I would seldom remove the sissy bar.
