Hi guys,
This afternoon I had a further look around on the bike, and had noticed from the manual, that there is a live 12v auxiliary output on the bike, under right hand (fake) air intake cover, where also a set of fuses is placed.
At first, I thought it was the black square plug, but then observed too many wires - and further up behind, there is a small grey loose connector with a blind end on. It's not so easy to see, let alone get out... But now we know where to get power from
The fuse allows 2amps, so 24W in total. A USB charger only takes 5W.. So room for a set of heated grips, I can hope!
Anyway, took a few pics for you, so you can see it
Now I just need to locate a loose connector I can put on the end of my USB charger, so I can record videos for longer, or use my phone as a GPS.
Happy modding, and enjoy your weekend.
