mack82097 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Hello, Anyone find an easily accessible 12v power source, either switched or constant, on the VFR1200? I want to wire in my Garmin but rather not take off body panels to run the power to the battery. Maybe someone found a 12v source under the dash or elsewhere upfront? Thanks in advance, Colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 I ran a wire to the power supply {cigarette lighter plug} outlet I screwed onto the battery but, then I bought a 3 way outlet that also has a USB port so I can plug in more than one item at a time.

Member Contributer Georges Posted November 15, 2011 Member Contributer Share Posted November 15, 2011 There is a plug just behind the radiator on the left side.. You do have to take panels off though. This Is the plug you are looking for though. 12 v switched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mack82097 Posted November 19, 2011 Author Share Posted November 19, 2011 I went ahead and wired a Powerlet port in to the right cowling. It's direct to the battery. Actually a lot easer than I thought. The 48" powerlet panel kit fits perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 This is how I wired mine: I attached the 12V socket to the HISS unit's the plastic cover, which is fastened to the metal lock with two bolts. I tightened the socket together with the left bolt. It now looks like it belongs there!! I put the cable down the left side of the frame, from the inside, and will connect it tomorrow morning to the cables underneath the left cowling. I must say it looks pretty darn good.
