Air Compressor Mount

Anyone installed an air compressor on a 13 ultra limited with ABS? If so, where did you install? I am not with my bike right now. Is there room inside the right side cover? Room for relay?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Viair 98C in front of the battery. Move all of the wiring and there is a decent amount of room in there.

That is where the compressor on my road king was mounted. I have been into this battery once to install heated gear wiring. It just did not seem like there was any room under the seat?

When you pull the seat it doesn't look like anything would fit in there! A little moving of the wires and there's a garage worth of space hiding in front of the battery.....

I just carry mine in a saddlebag. Mounting may be a better option though.

I've got my compressor mounted behind the right saddlebag. A couple of worm drive clamps wrapped around the body and the saddlebag support (slice of rubber for anti-vibration) and then two stainless steel zip ties going north and south around the compressor and the saddlebag mounting bracket. Solid as a rock and lots of clearance. As others have said with some imagination and trial and error there are a lot of spots to hide stuff if necessary.
