  1. Where to locate 12V power socket? 15 May 2019 16:53 Hi Variable9, The place where I have the USB socket is now perfect if forgetting how it looks. I don’t want to compromise how the steering works.
  2. Where to locate 12V power socket? 15 May 2019 16:48 Hi TriumphTraitor, Your installation is absolutely top quality work while comparing it to my 30 minutes quick and dirty installation. My installation is not that eye catching as the photo suggests.... but let’s see, I…
  3. Where to locate 12V power socket? 5 May 2019 15:27 Variable9 , your installation inspired me to-do it simple. I checked the space around the forks, but I did not find suitable place there…. Anyways, here is how I did it. [image: VFR_USB.jpg]
  4. Where to locate 12V power socket? 1 May 2019 09:19 Hi all, I have a 2015 VFR800F and I'm planning to install 12V cigarette lighter power socket or 5V USB socket for powering my mobile phone. I will use my mobile as a navigator, and therefore the socket should be close…

  6. Wiring Up A Power Socket. 5 May 2016 19:14 I received the Sumitomo connector and now I have wired my navigator to the OEM accessory connector. I checked the black/yellow and the red/green wires with a voltage meter and they are as timm says: red/green is hot…
  7. Wiring Up A Power Socket. 19 Apr 2016 16:55 Thanks for stopping me Timm. The acc-connector is taped to the harness (going to rear lights) on the left side of the bike. Just beside the left side fusebox as your picture shows.
  8. Wiring Up A Power Socket. 17 Apr 2016 20:12 I went to battery bay and checked how the extra OEM accessory connector looks like. I found a red connector close to battery + pole. There seems to be actually both female and male 4 way connectors in place. But the…
  9. Wiring Up A Power Socket. 16 Apr 2016 15:54 Thanks fink, Do you happen to have part number for the plug or any other detail how-to find suppliers?
  10. Wiring Up A Power Socket. 16 Apr 2016 13:42 Timm, thanks for sharing this. Is that extra connector also used for the Honda OEM 12V Socket (Honda P/N 08U70-MJM-D00)? Does someone sell plugs that fit to the extra connector?
  11. Anyone Gone From The 7Th Gen To The 8Th Gen? 7 Feb 2015 14:53 I'm sure having less power will not be a problem after a short while if I switch to new 800. The effortless power of 1200 (=torque) of course would be nice to have. I wonder how much I will compromise in ergos and in…
  12. Anyone Gone From The 7Th Gen To The 8Th Gen? 5 Feb 2015 19:48 Hmm... maybe I need to tell why I opened this thread. If you look my erlier posts here they are all in the 7th gen Forum. I joined here 2010 after I had bought the 1200. After 5 happy years and almost 50000 km I know…
  13. Anyone Gone From The 7Th Gen To The 8Th Gen? 4 Feb 2015 21:04 Thanks ilprofessore. I cannot afford both. How you see new 800, is it ok also for long trips (alone)? Something like 2 weeks and 5000 km. Others are welcome to comment also.
  14. Anyone Gone From The 7Th Gen To The 8Th Gen? 2 Feb 2015 20:46 It would be nice to hear if someone has downsized from the 1200 to the new 800. How you feel afterwards, are you still happy and do you regret anything?
  15. Just got my 2010 VFR1200 and I have a few questions. 16 Mar 2012 16:23 - Also Does anyone make a good Peg Lowering kit that uses the stock pegs? These should fit also to VFR1200 even though they sell Blackbird stuff in Jaws Motorcycles. http://www.jaws-moto...ird2.htm#lowers Worth of…
