GPS Connections

[lowrider1963]

Check out Küryakyn, they have a covered 12V Power Point that is a rugged handle bar mount in chrome that would mount nicely...use secure mating connectors that have a waterproof boot or rtv to seal covers from moisture. I would also mount it on the left close in to the steerer. It can even run a "true" cigarette lighter if you fuse it and do not have other accessories on when you use it (they can easily draw 15-20A) so a direct battery connection with fuse is probably better if you use it as such.

Has anyone ever installed this Kuryakyn? If so, how did it look? Was it worth the $.

It is expensive, granted...but having a true cigar lighter design and included, that is actually a pretty good deal, meaning it has a ceramic insulator (takes high temperature), wired and fused for more higher powered accessories. I would probably mount it closer to the steerer stem for more central power, and the GPS higher up for easy reach, but not in the road field of vision.
