OK, here is the black conduit coming from under the rear seat. The conduit carries both the + and -, from the relay i installed in the left scoop. I left enough conduit so it can reach my luggage (normally on the back rack). But it also tucks away nicely back under the rear seat
Again showing the power coming from under the rear seat. NOtice the connector, covered.
Here is the picture of the fuse box under the faux tank. this is where I got the power. You cannot see it in this picture, but I used a piggy back connector to steal power from a circuit that was only hot when the Key was ON.
This picture show how the black conduit snakes around along side the frame. Running the wires was the toughest part, because there isn't a lot of open room in these things. Be carefult not to interfere with the tank locks or support points.
Undernearth the rubber gas flange, there is a box steel cross member. It is easier seen when the rear seat is removed. Anyway, you have to run the wires from the let to the the right side of the bike, and this is the best place I found to do the cross over. The reason for the crossover, is that the passage under the rear seat, is on the RIGHT side, vs. the LEFT side. so you have to get the wires over there. There is already a wire harness running along the RIGHT side, under the rear seat... SO that is where I placed this wiring conduit.
I then realized that I don't always want to ride with the large lucggage just to hold my phone and charger, so just tonight I made a mini-case. Camera case with slit in the bottom, velcrowed (soon to be screwed) to the back of the sissy bar back rest. Now, it looks like a sleek, integrated design. Minimalist.
Looking downline at the bike you can see how the wiring harness goes up to behind the sissy bar backrest.
Here is the Grand Finale.... This is a Cigaretter Lighter/USB accessory I bought from Oreily. It is SO COOL, because it LIGHTS UP BLUE, when the key is on. YOu can plug any 12V cigarette adapter in, assuming you wont blow the 10A fuse. Also, it has the USB port, where you can see I have my white IPOD cable attached. NOTE, I decided to use three black rubber PLUGS to cover the cigarette receptacles when not in use.
And.... here is the bad beast!!!!!!!!!!!
I use bluetooth phone, and iphones die anyway, so I wanted to have an onboard charger. THis was well worth the time to rig. Good luck, advise questions.
