Got a map. Loaded it up, installed the pcV and rode for about an hour. Runs great. Tight fit for sure though. I don't know how in the hell I'd have fit the pcIII in there at twice the size...

You would be surprised what all you can shove in there.

I have a PCV, a load regulater for my LED's and a run/turn/brake module.

cbass, where did you end up putting it and can you show a pic or two?

When I get my bike back I have a PCV to install.

TIA,
Del

bberck, I would like to see a pic of yours too, I already have the RTB Module under the seat.

Sure, I'll take some pics later today when I get back to the house.

Basically, the pc control box, I wedged under the seat. There's a "clip" that holds several wires in place there. I broke that off and rerouted the wires to the side. The pcV box fit in there pretty snug.

The stock grey ECM connector i tucked out towards the engine. Luckily, things are so tight there it ain't moving... I had to laugh at the directions to "zip tie" it in place... By the time i got it situated, no way could I move it to get a zip tie on it. Guess it will be fine. It's probably 3-4 inches away from the rear cylinder.

Like Bberck, I also have a led voltage regulator under the seat. Hope none of my future mods call for using space under the seat!!!

cbass, were you able to take those pics of your pcV setup? I have a pcV under my seat now also but really don't like the way it is placed and would like to get an idea of how someone else has done it. Thanks.

I didn't take any pics, but I have the PC-V with a USB cord, load equalizer, Back-off module, and the HD battery tender harness shoe-horned under the seat of my WG.

Take the battery and support bracket off and that will give you quite a a bit of room to work. I even took the bolts out of my electrical panel so I could pull it away an inch or 3.

I started with the PC and have it velcro'd to the frame backbone (right under the ECM) With the suggestion from this site, I have the usb port with cord pointing down and ran the usb wire through an opening in the electrical panel where it's wrapped up and tucked away for instant access. The rest? Just stuffed in there any which way...
