Under the seat. Safe from prying eyes and scrotes.
Where the feck do you think you’ll mount it?

I have pixies to do it. Little tiny pixies, bred for the one purpose. I shout, “Up!” and they turn it up. “Down!” and they turn it down. “Flying around!” and they do impressions of Robert Morley and Terry Thomas. I have yet to find one able to do a really good Sarah Miles.
PS Of course it’s not really under the seat. It’s glued inside the top box lid.
But just in case you think it might be true. I Velcro’d mine to the top of the clutch reservoir. You see, I looked at my bike, where I usually sat and pondered as to where I thought I could reach to operate something as tricky as a remote control easily, all without falling off too often. Well, I can tell you, it had me in quite a quandary for at least 5 seconds until, like a bolt from above, it hit me. There it was, staring me in the face! How could I have missed it? No second hand Tom Tom bits. No need to buy an 1150. No quad locks. No help from anyone. Two simple strips of Velcro. Job’s a carrot, as they say.
Now, where do you think I put a second one? Yup, that’s right, you’ve got it. It’s Velcro’d on top of the first. How clever is that? Genius, eh?
Have a great weekend, again.

But hey, even after that you might be a bit down in the dumps, somewhat bruised and disappointed that you’d not been flooded with more (or less) polite answers to your question, it being second only to the mystery of what lies inside the atom. If so, here’s something to really cheer you up and hopefully help you see that, within the Adventure motorbiking world there is a whole pantheon of like minds:

This grabbed my attention on reading the remote control positioning was under your seat.
I had visions of much butt squirming and sphincter control to operate said apparatus.
Imagine my dissapointment when I read it was Velcroed to the clutch reservoir.
