Lighting, Electrical, and Wiring / Re: 12volt socket(s)

I'm with you on the non-waterproof sockets. They're still an afterthought instead of someone working out how to integrate them properly and make them weatherproof in use.  :003:

Racks also sold now.

Lighting, Electrical, and Wiring / Re: 12volt socket(s)

I have ascertained that the red and black pair connected directly to the battery terminals are power for the LED foglights. The light switch in the side panel switches a relay that powers those lights direct from the battery.

So nothing to do with the 12v socket that I can confirm is only live with ignition on.

Never ceases to amaze me how manufacturers happily place power sockets (12v or USB) facing up and covered with a rubber cap which can only keep water out when covered and therefore not being used. This is simply dumb as a bike needs to be fully functional in the rain and water pouring down the wires and into the socket is clearly not going to be for long. Maybe it's just me sees the absurdity of this.

I'll have a look, Collect plus have been good in the past and are good value. Their website is asking me for a delivery postcode to give a quote, any chance you pass that to me?
In fact I'll  send you a pm
Cheers.

Yeh, guy I brought it from wrapped it. It’s a black model underneath. 2014 with 68k on the clock but well serviced. Runs sweet as a nut. Miss gear driven cams though! FV parked up garage!

Right, no worries.  The Vista solution seems to be a good no wire, no cutting, easily removable solution for a throttle lock, so i am looking at that one.
