Electrical Modifications

I added 6 ignition-switched, fused power outlets to the bike using two small waterproof fuse boxes from www.totallywiredcycles.com:


Fuse boxes out


Fuse boxes tucked into the toolkit cavity

These fuses run power up to the front of the bike for

  1. Escort Passport 8500 x50 radar detector, wired in with a so-called "smart cord" so I have a mute button under the starter.
    Also powers a Signal Dynamics voltage meter.

  2. Garmin GPSMap 60CSx, mounted to the handlebars. Also provides power to my tank bag via a Gerbings connector. This will power whatever I end up putting into the tank bag.

  3. BMW socket on the left side of the front fairing.

  4. Gerbings connector for a power regulator that runs my heated gear when it's cold.

  5. A currently-unused wire that will eventually run an airhorn.

  6. Unused

The two fuse boxes fit nicely under the seat where the toolkit used to be. I moved the stock toolkit to an ammo can under the exhaust.
