Does the Valk have an assy plug where I can plug my GPS wireing in, or does it have to be run back to the battery????

YOU have to make your own asc. plug, a cig. lighter wired into the batt. mount anywhere you can . mine is on the windshield.

Accessory plugs have to be added. And I assume you mean Power Ports like a Cig Lighter. You can run one from the battery or from under the right side cover (a key on power lead is there I think).... and mount one up front. I have one I got at WalMart mounted under the top clamp, actually zip tied to the handle bars under the top clamp. Works well for me. I also ran one right out from under the passenger seat so I could charge the cell phone in the trunk or Bag of my IS if need be.

Ok, guess I worded it wrong, the VTX 1800 has an extra wireing plug in the head light to wire up assy's. I was wondering if the Valk had any such plugs that are already relayed. I want to wire up my GPS to the bike's system, and not have to add another relay. So it would be switch with the Key.
Thanks,
Sharky

The wire under the right side cover will do what you are looking for. It is a fused circuit. Think it's a 5A circuit, so should handle a GPS.

Yeah, but it seems a shame to use it up on a single device, when it would run a big handful of relays... -Mike |
