There is a video somewhere on here that shows it in detail, but the factory plug and PC plug go UNDER the back of the fuse block under the seat. That will leave you enough room to fit the PC module under the seat. It's a pain but it works with a little work.
Search for recent threads on this, I think about 2 weeks ago someone posted the video.

My suggestion to you is remove the battery and batt. box to give yourself room. Once done look under the seat,behind the rear cylinder there will be a rectangular frame tube coming from the vecenity of the tank sloping down on a 45 degree angle. Zip tie your two connectors together and to that frame with the grey (male) connector on the bottom. Now some guys wrap the whole thing in a plastic bag to prevent water intrusion,and even coat the pins / holes with dielectric grease. Be careful not to soak that part when you wash the bike, and good luck after you ride a few miles in the rain. Who knows you may be one of the lucky ones, but every so often I have to pull that connector apart to dry it out despite my best efforts to keep it dry.

Thank you,
I have the battery box out too. It seems to me that the best place was in the area that you mentioned but just wasn't sure. Thanks for the direction.

Exactly man that is it! only one or even two more zip ties to hold the actual connectors ...... "married" is the best way I can describe it without a pic. You know wind + vibration you don't want that silly connector to accidentally come apart on ya. The connector I have has a safety clip on it,but only on the one side. I wouldn't bother if there were one on either side!
Also you may want to slide it down just a little to clear the heat of the cylinder just in case.
