Enough room under the seat?

I bought a Mustang vintage wide seat, and I can put my H-D throw over saddlebags under my seat and tighten it down, but will it effect or damage the computer under there? The bags sit on the computer, but it seems like this is okay- does anyone on this forum know?
Thanks for your help.

If it feels like it's too tight you could always cutout the area that sits on the computer. If the seat goes on without to much trouble your probably fine.

I've got the same seat on my 04 custom but the bags don't go that far forward on mine. I would cut the bags crossover to clear the computer. You're going to love that seat. I thought it might look too big but I think it looks good and it feels great! Cruise in comfort.
