2 HID boxes
2 FIAMM Freeway Blaster horns (with relays)
Wiring for PIAA 510s
Voltage monitor
Wiring for Zumo 550



After I move I'll be putting a garage door opener in there and some wiring for orange LEDs I'm going to add to my hand guards.

I need to take a pic, I deleted my horn just to make room for everything else.

2x HID Ballasts
Relay for the HIDs
Zumo wiring
Heated grips wiring
Voltage monitor
PIAA wiring
Video camera wiring
Recorder for video camera wiring

Then I got my Veypor VR2 race computer, but nothing for it is under the screen.

That's a lot of wiring, you have no room for the rat either!
Did you bring a + wire up from the bat.? What are you using for a horn?

I know this is kinda off subject but is there any good lower cost GPS out there, or do you have to spend the $$$ for the Zumo 550?

Ronmold, you can get a lower cost GPS that works fine, but they generally do not allow you to upload your own routes. I think the beauty in the GPS lies in just that ability. The price goes up when you add that feature.

If you want something to get you from point a to point b, or find your way home then there are a lot of cheap options.

Get something Garmin, like a cheap Nuvi 250. They lack some of the features of the Zumos, but it will at least let you get a GPS and see what you need. Best part is, if it breaks, your out only $100.

When i brought power from the battery up for the new horn, I ran a ground from the battery with it. Also ran a spare wire while I was at it. I'll find a use for it sooner or later.

I used the acc. socket wire and put a 25A fuse in as the 10 lit up when I tried it. It will do for now. Running a ground wire is fine but really unnecessary if you clean up the frame grounds which needs to be done anyways. Running a spare wire is good thinking!

Ditto.

I ran 3-#12 THHN (1 white - 2 Orange) from the battery to the inside of the fly screen. I also ran the Zump 550 power (+ and -) from the battery and the power for the PIAA relay feed.

I wrapped the whole commotion in a plastic tube, two wraps of Scotch 33+ and two wraps of Bulldog friction tape, and then fished the entire mess along the inside of the frame.

I'd tried doing just the wires and interestingly enough when I went back to "do it right" there was bare copper conductor showing where one had been abraded.

Try the Nuvi 550, waterproof, motorcycle friendly, can be found for $250. My next purchase. The Zumo has some nice features designed for specifically for the motorcycle rider, however at 2.5 to 3 times the cost I find it hard to drop the extra coin. As a matter fact other than the fact that the Zumo has it's hard buttons set up for the left hand I actually prefer the Nuvi. Go to the Garmin website and compare the two.

How about a four HID system under the flyscreen, and a Hella (Tuber style) Horn.

This was done about a year and a half ago with many other Mods...which I posted here
