If so, would you care whip the seat off and take a photo of it fitted please?

Those rear struts and clips make no sense to me.
 
This ia an Interstate rack but fitted to a bike with Interpol tank and RGM seat so it is forward of the Interstate position, turn the rear mounting hoops around so the bolt is on the outside of the tube and it works for an Interstate.

Thanks so much for the pics Kommando. Very helpful 👍

The struts look a tad long and my concern is that this pushes the rack higher up at the rear, which make it point slightly downhill (not a major issue), but the rack to frame rails then catch the back of the seat forcing in up at the rear (hope that makes sense!), but I'll have a fettle and see if I can get it to work.
 
I prefer the rack sitting up at the rear as it helps stop my bag I strap to ot going backwards. Put some furniture polish on the inside of the rubber hoops and they will move around easier and give you more options, keep all the nuts loose until you get to the final position.

You can also turn the rear hoops so the hole for the bolt is under rather than above the frame which will in effect shorten the two rear support bars.
 
Ok, now fitted.

I used slightly longer 1/4 UNF bolts to aid insertion into the tight P clips, a couple of which I will replace with shorter ones now it's in situ (or trim off).

Ball ache of a job, but your pics helped me to get my head around what goes where, Kommando. so thanks again 🍻
