Thanks for the response, but I tried a pair of throwovers and my ECM is right where the yoke fits over the fender under the seat. I have a solo seat and really don't want the yoke of the bags on the fender in plain site.

That seems like a dumb idea of where they located the ECM, I've not seen the 07s under seat but it seems as though it gets in the way from what I've read for changing seats or wanting saddlebags. I suppose if you did not mind relocating the signals you could just use any saddlebags you want with easy brackets but they add about another $150 not including the cost of relocating the signals (I like mine where they are for now).

I have an 07 with the ECM under the seat. I have a pair of Tourmaster throwovers that still fit (barely) under the seat and cost about $100 - and come off easily by pulling the seat's rear Phillips screw. The throwover portion sits ON the ECM - hopefully it won't overheat.
