Went out for a few hundred miles on Sunday after spending the better part of Saturday doing electrical work.



I installed an ignition-switched relay to run 6 fused circuits kept in a Pelican 1010 case that sits in the little compartment on the top of the faux tank just behind the handlebars. Turned out to be a really clean install, since the ACC-2 accessory power circuit is easy to get to under the dash. I ran power and ground lines directly from the battery and used ACC-2 as the signal line to the relay. The 6-circuit fuse block from Napa and a standard 12v relay fit into the Pelican 1010 case with a little help from a Dremel.

I also replaced the stock handlebars and hand guards with Renthal Fatbars (bend number 608) and Acerbis Rally Pro handguards. This is the same setup I had on my F650 and it worked very well. I need to get some more rise on the handlebars, more even than the current 30mm Touratech risers I've got. I'm going to try and install the KTM 18mm risers in addition to these and see how that goes.

So-far, I've got the GPS, KTM Hard Equipment heated grips and a Gerbings outlet for my heated gear. Should make for some comfortable fall riding!

Next on the list is a remote control for the trip computer (so it can be operated without taking my hands off the bars) and a Signal Dynamics voltage meter installed in the dash.
