I used a longer bolt and fastened it inside the tool kit compartment under the tank in front of the seat.  I hope it stays cool enough in there.  There is space both above and below it, so that'll help. :vroom:   The mounting holes almost lined up with the threads where the stock regulator goes.  Just a smidgen off, and the threads were kinda bunged up on one of the holes anyway.  The combo unit was making contact with the rear fender, and I didn't like that, so, up it went.  Also leaves a cleaner path for the wires going up and forward with them instead of down in front of the fender under the battery.
Every day above ground is a good one.
